Can someone help me with this Physical Chemistry question that deals with Partial Molar volumes. I missed class and need help! Picture to follow...

OpenStudy (kainui):

Sure, so do you understand that the picture is describing how the shapes of the molecules pack together more tightly when mixed together rather than when completely separate?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes because the ethanol chain can fit in between the hexagonal structure of the h2o crystal lattice

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I feel like its really easy, I'm just missing something. I missed class last week

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Kainui

OpenStudy (kainui):

Wait, there's no crystal lattice here, this isn't frozen water.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well, the quasi- lattice from the H-bonds

OpenStudy (anonymous):

dude, i need help idk @Kainui

OpenStudy (aaronq):

Have you tried using the formula \({V}=\dfrac{M}{\rho}\) to find the necessary molar volume?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

those values can be obtained from the graph

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ello mate, you need some help?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

please! I'm getting frustrated because I'm stumped!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well, too bad im not a chemist.. you know who this is hahahahahaaa

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i checked to see if somone asnwered you haha and i called joey hahaha

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hahah you bugger i thought chemistry wise was gunna help me solve the problem:(

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry bubbbaaa, ask @aaronq , help my man!!

OpenStudy (aaronq):

alternatively, you could find the mole fraction of when using 50 g of each. I don't think you can just look at the graph and find the values because the molar mass of each is involved (and they're not the same).
