JEE MAIN - Chemistry (2020 - 3rd September Morning Slot - No. 10)

The mole fraction of glucose (C6H12O6 ) in an aqueous binary solution is 0.1. The mass percentage of water in it, to the nearest integer, is _______.
Answer
47

Explanation

Mole fraction of glucose in aqueous solution = 0.1

Let total mole is 1 mol then mole of glucose will be 0.1 and mole of water will be 0.9.

So mass % of water = $${{0.9 \times 18} \over {0.1 \times 180 + 0.9 \times 18}}$$ $$ \times $$ 100

= 47.37 $$ \simeq $$ 47
