mo for NaCl,HCl and NaA are 126.4,425.9 and 100.5Scm2mol-1 respectively. If the conductivity of 0.001MHA is 5×10-5Scm-1, degree of dissociation of HA is
  1. 0.125
  2. 0.75
  3. 0.25
  4. 0.50

Solution

Kohlrausch's law states that the equivalent conductivity of an electrolyte at infinite dilution is equal to the sum of the conductances of the anions and cations.

λmoHA=λmoHCl+λmoNaA-λoNaCl

=425.9+100.5-126.4

=400

λmo=K×1000M=5×10-5×10310-3=50

α=50400=0.125
