Identify the incorrect statement among the following.

  1. A Electrolytic conductance increases with increase in temperature
  2. B Conductivity does not depend on the viscosity of the solution
  3. C Conductivity depends on the size of the ions
  4. D Conductivity depends on the solvation of the ions
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) Conductivity does not depend on the viscosity of the solution

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

(1) Correct: With increase in temperature, kinetic energy of ions increases and viscosity of solvent decreases \(\to\) ions move faster \(\to\) conductance increases. (3) Correct: Larger ions move more slowly \(\to\) lower mobility \(\to\) lower conductivity. (4) Correct:…
