Question 36

The molality and mole fraction of the solute in an aqueous solution containing 6 gm of urea per 500 gm of water (mol. wt. of urea = 60)

Solution

Moles of urea $$= \frac{6}{60} = 0.1$$, so the molality is $$\frac{0.1}{0.5} = 0.2\text{ mol kg}^{-1}$$. Moles of water $$= \frac{500}{18} \approx 27.78$$, so the mole fraction of urea is $$\frac{0.1}{27.78 + 0.1} \approx 0.00359$$.
