Solution
The correct option is B 0.035 2.00 m means 2 moles of CH3OH is dissolved in 1 kg of water. Number of moles of water in 2.00 m of solution =1000g18gmol−1=55.55mol Number of moles of CH3OH present in 2.00 m solution = 2 mol
Mole fraction of CH3OH =molesofCH3OHinsolutiontotalnumberofmolesinsolution=2(2+55.55)=0.035
