AI Generated Solution

To calculate the molarity of a solution of ethanol in water where the mole fraction of ethanol is 0.040, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the definition of mole fraction The mole fraction (X) of a component in a solution is defined as the ratio of the number of moles of that component to the total number of moles of all components in the solution. ### Step 2: Set up the equation for mole fraction Let \( n \) be the number of moles of ethanol. The mole fraction of ethanol (X_ethanol) is given by the formula: \[ ...
