Molar conductivity \(\Lambda_m^0\)of a solution at a given concentration (c) is the conductance of volume, V of solution, containing one mole of electrolyte kept between the two electrodes with area of cross-section A and at a distance of unit length. It increases with the decrease in concentration and when the concentration approaches zero, the molar conductivity is called limiting molar conductivity \(\Lambda_m^0\) . For a strong electrolyte, \(\Lambda_m\) increases linearly with dilution and is given by \(\Lambda_m=\Lambda_m^0-A c^{1 / 2}\). The value of the constant A for a given solvent depends on the type of electrolyte along with temperature. According to Kohlrausch law, they value of \(\Lambda_m^0\) for an electrolyte is \(\Lambda_m^0=\nu_{+} \lambda_{+}^0+\nu_{-} \lambda_{-}^0\), where \(\nu_{+}\)and \(\nu_{-}\) are the number of cations and anions, respectively, per molecule of the electrolyte and \(\lambda_{+}^0\) and \(\lambda_{-}^0\) are limiting molar conductivities of cation and anion, respectively. Kohlrausch law finds many applications, like determining the solubility of a sparingly soluble salt, determining the degree of dissociation \(\left(\Lambda_m / \Lambda_m^0\right)\), and the dissociation constant of a weak electrolyte.
If the molar conductance values of Ca2+ and Cl- at infinite dilution are, respectively, 118.8 × 10-4 ohm-1 m2 mol-1 and 77.33 × 10-4 ohm-1 m2 mol-1, then the molar conductance of CaCl2 at infinite dilution will be :
- A 273.46 ohm-1 m2 mol-1
- B 196.13 ohm-1 m2 mol-1
- C 41.47 ohm-1 m2 mol-1
- D -41.47 ohm-1 m2 mol-1
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) 273.46 ohm-1 m2 mol-1
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\( \Lambda_m^0(CaCl_2) = \nu_{Ca^{2+}} \lambda_{Ca^{2+}}^0 + \nu_{Cl^{-}} \lambda_{Cl^{-}}^0 \) \( \Lambda_m^0(CaCl_2) = (1 \times 118.8) + (2 \times 77.33) \) \( \Lambda_m^0(CaCl_2) = 118.8 + 154.66 \)…

Adsorption is surface phenomenon and it differs from absorption which occurs throughout the body of the substance which absorbs. In physisorption the attractive forces are mainly van der Waal forces while in chemisorption actual bonding occurs between the particles of adsorbent and adsorbed more easily on the surface of a solid as compared to the gases which are liquified with difficulty. Adsorption increases with the increases in pressure and decreases as temperature is increased.
