$-2 \leq x \leq 2$

Vedclass · Answer

(B) The mole fraction $(x)$ of a component in a solution is defined as the ratio of the number of moles of that component to the total number of moles of all components present in the solution.Since the number of moles of any component cannot be negative and cannot exceed the total number of moles,the value of the mole fraction must lie between $0$ and $1$ inclusive,i.e.,$0 \leq x \leq 1$.Therefore,the statement $-2 \leq x \leq 2$ is incorrect.

Which of the following is incorrect for the mole fraction $(x)$?
