JEE Mains · Chemistry · STD 12 - 2. Electrochemistry

Which out of the following is a correct equation to show change in molar conductivity with respect to concentration for a weak electrolyte, if the symbols carry their usual meaning?

  1. A \(\Lambda_{\mathrm{m}}^2 \mathrm{C}-\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{a}} \Lambda_{\mathrm{m}}^{\circ 2}+\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{a}} \Lambda_{\mathrm{m}} \Lambda_{\mathrm{m}}^{\circ}=0\)
  2. B \(\Lambda_{\mathrm{m}}-\Lambda_{\mathrm{m}}^{\circ}+\mathrm{AC}^{\frac{1}{2}}=0\)
  3. C \(\Lambda_{\mathrm{m}}-\Lambda_{\mathrm{m}}^{\circ}-\mathrm{AC}^{\frac{1}{2}}=0\)
  4. D \(\Lambda_{\mathrm{m}}^2 \mathrm{C}+\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{a}} \Lambda_{\mathrm{m}}^{\circ 2}-\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{a}} \Lambda_{\mathrm{m}} \Lambda_{\mathrm{m}}^{\circ}=0\)

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\Lambda_{\mathrm{m}}^2 \mathrm{C}-\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{a}} \Lambda_{\mathrm{m}}^{\circ 2}+\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{a}} \Lambda_{\mathrm{m}} \Lambda_{\mathrm{m}}^{\circ}=0\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( \mathrm{HA}(\mathrm{aq}) \rightleftharpoons \mathrm{H}^{+}(\mathrm{aq})+\mathrm{A}^{-}(\mathrm{aq}) \) \( \mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{a}}=\frac{\alpha^2 \mathrm{C}}{1-\alpha} \) \( \alpha^2 \mathrm{C}+\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{a}} \alpha-\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{a}}=0 \)…
