w
m_component / m_total — m_component / m_total

Vanlige feil å unngå

  • Confusing mass fraction with mole fraction
  • Forgetting to include all components in total mass

Ofte stilte spørsmål

How does mass fraction relate to mole fraction?

They're different; mass fraction uses mass, mole fraction uses number of moles. Convert using molar masses.

Can mass fraction exceed 1?

No, a component can't be more than the total; maximum is 1 (100%).
