(a) Mole fraction

(b) Parts per million

(c) Mass percentage

(d) Molality

Solutions

Expert Solution

Answer : (a) Mole fraction

Explanation : Mole fraction is useful in co-relating vapour pressure with concentration of solution.

According to Raoult's law, the partial vapour pressure of each component in the solution is directly proportional to its mole fraction.

Total vapour pressure = Mole fraction × partial vapour pressure 

P = x1P1 + x2P2 + ....... so on 

 


(a) Mole fraction
