25 POINTS PLS HELP

A solution has 2.5 moles of water, 2.5 moles of ethanol and 5.0 moles of acetic
acid. The mole fraction of water is

A. 5.0
B. 0.25
C. 2.5
D. 10.0

Respuesta :

To find the mole fraction of water in the solution, we first need to calculate the total number of moles in the solution:

Total moles = moles of water + moles of ethanol + moles of acetic acid
= 2.5 + 2.5 + 5.0
= 10.0 moles

Now, we can find the mole fraction of water:

Mole fraction of water = Moles of water / Total moles
= 2.5 / 10.0
= 0.25

So, the correct answer is B. 0.25.
