The formula to convert mole fraction (X) to percent (P) is:
\[ P = X \times 100 \]
Where:
Let's say the mole fraction (\( X \)) is 0.25. Using the formula:
\[ P = 0.25 \times 100 \]
We get:
\[ P = 25 \]
So, the percent (\( P \)) is 25%.
Mole fraction is a way of expressing the concentration of a component in a mixture. It is the ratio of the number of moles of a particular component to the total number of moles of all components in the mixture. Mole fraction is a dimensionless quantity and is often used in chemistry to describe the composition of mixtures, particularly in cases where the components are gases or liquids. It is an important concept in thermodynamics and chemical engineering, as it helps in understanding the behavior of mixtures and solutions.
