A solution of phosphoric acid was made by dissolving 10.0 g of H3PO4 in 100.0 mL of water. The resulting volume was 113 mL. Calculate the density, mole fraction, molarity, and molality of the solution. Assume water has a density of 1.00 g/cm3.

Explanation:

Mass of solute = 10.0 g

mass of solvent(water) = m

Volume of solvent( water) = v = 100.0 mL

Density of water= d =

Mass of solution(M) = Mass of solute + mass of solvent

M = 10.0 g + 100.0 g = 110.0 g

Volume of the solution = V = 113 mL

Density of the solution = D

The density of the solution is 0.9734 g/ml.

Moles of phosphoric acid =

Moles of water  =

Mole fraction of phosphoric acid =

Mole fraction of water =

Moles of  phosphoric acid = 0.1020 mol

Volume of the solution = V = 113 mL = 0.113 L ( 1 mL = 0.001 L)

Molarity of the solution :

Moles of  phosphoric acid = 0.1020 mol

Mass of solvent(water) = m =100.0 g = 0.100 kg ( 1 g = 0.001 kg)

Molality of the solution :

a. a clone will be physically identical to the original, but won’t be genetically identical

have a good day!
