gThe mole fraction of potassium nitrate in an aqueous solution is 0.0194. The solution's density is 1.0627 g/mL. What is the molarity of KNO in the solution

0.595 M

Explanation:

The number of moles of water in 1L = 1000g/18g/mol = 55.6 moles of water.

Mole fraction = number of moles of KNO3/number of moles of KNO3 + number of moles of water

0.0194 = x/x + 55.6

0.0194(x + 55.6) = x

0.0194x + 1.08 = x

x - 0.0194x = 1.08

0.9806x= 1.08

x= 1.08/0.9806

x= 1.1 moles of KNO3

Mole fraction of water= 55.6/1.1 + 55.6 = 0.981

If

xA= mole fraction of solvent

xB= mole fraction of solute

nA= number of moles of solvent

nB = number of moles of solute

MA= molar mass of solvent

MB = molar mass of solute

d= density of solution

Molarity = xBd × 1000/xAMA ×xBMB

Molarity= 0.0194 × 1.0627 × 1000/0.981 × 18 × 0.0194×101

Molarity= 20.6/34.6

Molarity of KNO3= 0.595 M
