The mole fraction of benzene in a solution containing \(39 \%\) by mass in an organic solvent of molecular mass 122 is

  1. A \(0.5\)
  2. B \(0.6\)
  3. C \(0.4\)
  4. D \(0.35\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(0.6\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given, \(39 \%\) by mass of organic solvent in benzene \(\therefore 39 \mathrm{~g}\) of organic solvent in \(100 \mathrm{~g}\) solution. or \(39 \mathrm{~g}\) of organic solvent in \(100-39=61\) g benzene. Now, molar mass of organic solvent \(=122 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{mol}\)…
