Q.

For strong electrolyte Λm increases slowly with dilution and can be represented by the equation 

Λm=Λm°-Ac1/2 

Molar conductivity values of the solutions of strong electrolyte AB at 18°C are given below :

[mol L-1]

0.04

0.09

0.16

0.25

Λ (S cm2 mol-1)

96.1

95.7

95.3

94.9

The value of constant A based on the above data in [S cm2 mol-1/(mol/L)1/2] unit is_______.  [2026]


Ans.

(4)

Using equation: Λm=Λm0-Ac

96.1=Λm0-A0.04

96.1=Λm0-A×0.2  ....(1)

95.7=Λm0-A0.09

95.7=Λm0-A×0.3  ...(2)

From eq. (1) and eq. (2)

A=4
