An aqueous solution is 40.0 % by mass hydrochloric acid, HCl, and has a density of 1.20 g/mL. The mole fraction of hydrochloric acid in the solution is

The molar concentration of HCl in the aqueous solution is 0.0131 mol/dm3

Explanation:

To get the molar concentration of a solution we will use the formula:

Molar concentration = mass of HCl/ molar mass of HCl

Mass of HCl in the aqueous solution will be 40% of the total mass of the solution.

We can extract the mass of the solution from its density which is 1.2g/mL

We will further perform our analysis by considering only 1 ml of this aqueous solution.

The mass of the substance present in this solution is 1.2g.

The mass of HCl Present is 40% of 1.2 = 0.48 g.

The molar mass of HCl can be obtained from standard tables or by adding the masses of Hydrogen (1 g) and Chlorine (35.46 g) = 36.46g/mol

Therefore, the molar concentration of HCl in the aqueous solution is 0.48/36.46 = 0.0131 mol/dm3
