Question

When an electrolyte is dissociated in solution, the van’t Hoff factor (i) is, (A) > 1 (B) < 1 (C) = 0 (D) = 1

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

When an electrolyte dissociates in a solution, number of particles increases and

van't Hoff factor (i)

= \frac{number of particles after dissociation}{number of particles taken}

∴ i > 1
