    A)

    (0.270 mol) / (0.270 mol + 3.940 mol) = 0.0641

    B)

    (0.270 mol C3H7OH) x (60.09535 g C3H7OH/mol) = 16.226 g C3H7OH

    (3.940 mol H2O) x (18.01532 g H2O/mol) = 70.9804 g H2O

    (16.226 g) / (16.226 g + 70.9804 g) = 0.186 = 18.6% by mass

    C)

    (0.270 mol) / 70.9804 g H2O x (1000 g H2O) = 3.80 m
