Mole Fraction

The mole fraction of a substance in the mixture is the ratio of the mole of the substance in the mixture to the total mole of the mixture. Since it is the ratio of moles to moles, it is a dimensionless quantity. The mole fraction is sometimes called the amount fraction.

Percentage Composition

A compound is a pure substance made up of different elements. So, it consists of atoms of different elements. Examples of compounds are water (H₂O), carbon dioxide (CO₂), hydrogen chloride (HCl), sulphuric acid (H₂SO₄), potassium hydroxide (KOH), methane (CH₄), acetic acid (CH₃COOH). All these compounds contain at least two atoms of elements.
