JEE Mains · Chemistry · STD 12 - 2. Electrochemistry

For a strong electrolyte, a plot of molar conductivity against (concentration) \({ }^{1 / 2}\) is a straight line, with a negative slope, the correct unit for the slope is _______.

  1. A \(\mathrm{S} \mathrm{cm}^2 \mathrm{~mol}^{-3 / 2} \mathrm{~L}^{1 / 2}\)
  2. B \(\mathrm{S} \mathrm{cm}^2 \mathrm{~mol}^{-1} \mathrm{~L}^{1 / 2}\)
  3. C \(\mathrm{S} \mathrm{cm}^2 \mathrm{~mol}^{-3 / 2} \mathrm{~L}\)
  4. D \(\mathrm{S} \mathrm{cm}^2 \mathrm{~mol}^{-3 / 2} \mathrm{~L}^{-1 / 2}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\mathrm{S} \mathrm{cm}^2 \mathrm{~mol}^{-3 / 2} \mathrm{~L}^{1 / 2}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\Lambda_{\mathrm{m}}=\Lambda_{\mathrm{m}}^{\circ}-\mathrm{A} \sqrt{\mathrm{C}}\) Units of \(\mathrm{A} \sqrt{\mathrm{C}}=\mathrm{S} \mathrm{cm}^2 \mathrm{~mole}^{-1}\) Uits of \(\mathrm{A}=\mathrm{S} \mathrm{cm}^2 \mathrm{~mole}^{-3 / 2} \mathrm{~L}^{1 / 2}\)
