Q. Ostwald’s dilution law is applicable to only

AIIMSAIIMS 1996Equilibrium

Solution:

According to Ostwald's dilution law, the degree of dissociation of a

weak electrolyte is proportional to the square root of dilution.

$\alpha=\sqrt{\frac{K}{C}}$

$\alpha=$ degree of dissociation,

$C =$ concentration

$K =$ Equilibrium constant (dissociation)
