1 Answer
The formula :
Mole fraction of solute =
Explanation:
That means, say you have 90 grams of Glucose in 180 grams of water. So the number of moles of glucose present is
So, here the mole fraction of glucose would be (
P.S. Solve your problem with the formula. There is a mistake in your question. There's nothing called the 'mole fraction of the solution'.
