p) (C2H5)3 N added to CH3COOH
(C2H5)3 NH+ and CH3COO- ions generated in solution, conductivity increases & then remains constant as (C2H5)3 N is not dissociated when in excess.

q) KIeq added to AgNO3
ions replaced by
conductivity does not change till complete precipitation but later on with additional KI(aq) added conductivity will increase.

r) On addition of acetic acid to KOH. KOH fully dissociated replaced by
\(CH _3 COOH +\left( K ^{+}+ OH ^{-}\right) \longrightarrow[ CH _3 COO ^{-}\) \(+ K ^{+}]+ H _2 O\)
The net result is replacement of OH- by CH3COO- ions whose ionic mobility is less so conductivity will decrease first and then will not change much due to addition of CH3COOH(in excess) which will not be dissociated

s) On addition of NaOH to HI
there will be replacement of H+ by Na+ whose mobility is less than H+ which means conductivity will decrease first & then due to adding NaOH which is a strong electrolyte which fully dissociates, so conductivity will increase.

- Paragraph:
Chemical reactions involve interaction of atoms and molecules. A large number of atoms/molecules (approximately \(6.023 \times 10^{23}\) ) are present in a few grams of any chemical compound varying with their atomic/molecular masses. To handle such large numbers conveniently, the mole concept was introduced. This concept has implications in diverse areas such as analytical chemistry, biochemistry, electrochemistry and radiochemistry. The following example illustrates a typical case, involving chemical/electrochemical reaction, which requires a clear understanding of the mole concept.
A \(4.0\) molar aqueous solution of \(\mathrm{NaCl}\) is prepared and \(500 \mathrm{~mL}\) of this solution is electrolysed. This leads to the evolution of chlorine gas at one of electrodes (atomic mass: \(\mathrm{Na}=23, \mathrm{Hg}=200 ; 1\) faraday \(=96500\) coulombs).
