The density of acetonitrile (CH3CN) is 0.786 g/mL, and the density of methanol (CH3OH) is 0.791 g/mL. A solution is made by dissolving 22.0 mL CH3OH in 98.4 mL CH3CN. Part A What is the mole fraction of methanol in the solution?

The answer to your question is  0.22

Explanation:

Data

Acetonitrile (CH₃CN) density = 0.786 g/ml

Methanol (CH₃OH) density = 0.791 g/ml

Volume of CH₃OH = 22 ml

Volume of CH₃CN = 98.4 ml

Process

1.- Calculate the mass of Acetonitrile and the mass of Methanol

density = mass/ volume

mass = density x volume

Acetonitrile

        mass = 0.786 x 98.4

                  = 77.34 g

Methanol

        mass = 0.791 x 22

                  = 17.40 g

2.- Calculate the moles of the reactants

Acetonitrile molar mass = (12 x 2) + (14 x 1) + (3 x 1)

                                        = 24 + 14 + 3

                                        = 41 g

Methanol molar mass = (12 x 1) + (4 x 1) + (16 x 1)

                                      = 12 + 4 + 16

                                      = 32 g

Moles of Acetonitrile

                     41 g 1 mol

                      77.34g  x

                      x = (77.34 x 1) / 41

                      x = 1.89 moles

Moles of Methanol

                      32 g 1 mol

                       17.40 g  x

                       x = (17.40 x 1)/32

                       x = 0.54 moles

3.- Calculate the mole fraction of Methanol

Total number of moles = 1.89 + 0.54

                                       = 2.43

Mole fraction = moles of Methanol / total number of moles

Mole fraction = 0.54/ 2.43

Mole fraction = 0.22  

space exploration has led to the development and technological improvement of many everyday items. (if this answer is wrong i will find the right answer) : )

for step 7 table c on the lab "newtons law of action"   the average time it took the car to travel .25 meters   was 1.92 seconds.

the average time it took the car to travel 0.50 meters was 2.61 seconds

hope this : )
