Definition of mole fraction=(moles of solute)/(total moles in solution).

Mole fraction of ethanol in water solution:

First, you need to figure out the moles of solute (ethanol) you have in 20.0g and moles of water in 80.0g. To determine the moles you have in given grams of something, the general formula is: grams/(molecular weight in g/mol). Molecular weight can be determined by adding the atomic masses of ...
