If a centimolal aqueous solution of \(\mathrm{K}_{3}\left[\mathrm{~F}_{\mathrm{e}}(\mathrm{CN})_{6}\right]\) has degree of dissociation \(0 \cdot 78\), what is the value of vant Hoff factor?

  1. A 3.34
  2. B 1.2
  3. C 2.5
  4. D 4
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) 3.34

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\mathrm{K}_{3}\left[\mathrm{Fe}(\mathrm{CN})_{6}\right] \longrightarrow 3 \mathrm{~K}^{+}+\left[\mathrm{Fe}(\mathrm{CN})_{6}\right]^{-}\)
\(\therefore \mathrm{n}=4\)
van't Hoff factor (i) \(=1+\alpha(n-1)=1+0.78(4-1)=3.34\)
