Water and ethanol, , are miscible, that is, they can be mixed in all proportions. However, when these liquids are mixed, the total volume of the resulting solution is not equal to the sum of the pure liquid volumes, and we say that the volumes are not additive. For example, when of water and of , are mixed at , the total volume of the solution is , not . (The volumes are not additive because the interactions and packing of water molecules are slightly different from the interactions and packing of molecules.) Calculate the molarity of in a solution prepared by mixing of water and of at . At this temperature, the densities of water and ethanol are and , respectively.
Solution
VerifiedTo obtain molarity we need two quantities, moles of solute and litres of solution. We must use the molar mass of ethanol to convert from mass to moles and convert the volume from millilitres to litres. Then we can use the definition of molarity to obtain the molarity of the solution.
