mass percent and mole fraction
would the mole fraction be
12/12+50=.1935
mass percent and mole fraction
would the mole fraction be
12/12+50=.1935
Answers
no.
What you have calculated as mole fraction actually is mass fraction. Multiply that by 100 to get 19.35% for mass percent.
mole fraction is mols NaCl/total mols.
mols NaCl = 12/molar mass NaCl = ?
mols H2O = 50/molar mass H2O = ?
