JEE Mains · Chemistry · STD 12 - 5. Co-ordination chemistry

Given below are two statements :
Statement I : Mohr's salt is composed of only three types of ions-ferrous, ammonium and sulphate.
Statement II : If the molar conductance at infinite dilution of ferrous, ammonium and sulphate ions are \(\mathrm{x}_1, \mathrm{x}_2\) and \(\mathrm{x}_3 \mathrm{~S} \mathrm{~cm}^2 \mathrm{~mol}^{-1}\), respectively then the molar conductance for Mohr's salt solution at infinite dilution would be given by \(\mathrm{x}_1+\mathrm{x}_2+2 \mathrm{x}_3\)
In the light of the given statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below :

  1. A Both statements I and Statement II are false
  2. B Statement I is false but Statement II is true
  3. C Statement I is true but Statement II are false
  4. D Both statements I and Statement II are true
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) Statement I is true but Statement II are false

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Mohr's salt : \(\mathrm{FeSO}_4 \cdot\left(\mathrm{NH}_4\right)_2 \mathrm{SO}_4 \cdot 6 \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}\) Using Kohlrousch law \(\lambda_{\mathrm{m}}^{\infty}(\text { Mohr's salt })=\mathrm{x}_1+2 \mathrm{x}_2+2 \mathrm{x}_3\)
