Mole fraction is dimensionless. It's the amount of moles of species "A" divided by the total amount of moles in the mixture. So "mole A / mole total" equals "dimensionless". To add clarity in the use of mole fractions, one could add as "unit" mole A / mole "mixture".

Mole fraction(x) is the ratio of number of moles of one to the total number of moles. x = Number of moles of one component / Total number of moles
