Question

The specific conductance $(\kappa )$ of an electrolyte of $0.1N$ concentration is related to equivalent $(\Lambda )$ by the following formula

• A. $\Lambda =\kappa$
• B. $\Lambda =10\kappa$
• C. $\Lambda =100\kappa$
• D. $\Lambda =10000\kappa$

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

Equivalent conductance $(\wedge )=$ specific conductance $(\kappa )\times o$
where, $o\mid =$ volume in $c{m}^3$ containing $1g$ equivalent of electrolyte $0.1g$ equivalent
is dissolve in
$=1000c{m}^{3}1g$ equivalent is dissolve in
$=\frac{1000}{0.1}c{m}^3$
$=10,000c{m}^3$
So, $\wedge =10,000\kappa$
