AI Generated Solution

To find the mole fraction of ethylene glycol in the solution, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Calculate the number of moles of ethylene glycol. The formula to calculate the number of moles is: \[ \text{Number of moles} = \frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}} \] For ethylene glycol (C₂H₆O₂), the molar mass is calculated as follows: ...
