प्रश्न

The resistance of a conductivity cell with a 0.1 M KCl solution is 200 ohm. When the same cell is filled with a 0.02 M NaCl solution, the resistance is 1100 ohm. If the conductivity of 0.1 M KCl solution is 0.0129 ohm-1 cm-1, calculate the cell constant and molar conductivity of 0.02 M NaCl solution.

उत्तर

Given: `"R"_((0.1  "M" "KCl"))` = 200 ohm, `"R"_((0.02  "M" "NaCl"))` = 1100 ohm

`"K"_((0.1  "M" "KCl"))`  = 0.0129 ohm-1 cm-1

`"G"_((0.02  "M" "NaCl"))` = ?, ∧m = ?

Cell constant (G) = Conductivity (K) × Resistance (R)

= 200 × 0.0129

= 2.58 cm-1

Conductivity `(lambda_(0.02  "M" "NaCl")) = "Cell constant (G)"/("Resistance" ("R"_(0.02  "M" "NaCl")))`

`= (2.58)/1100`

= 2.345 × 10-3 s cm-1

Molar conductivity (λm) `= "Conductivity (K) × 1000"/"Molarity"` 

`= (2.345 xx10^-3 xx 1000)/(0.02)`

= 117.25 s m2 mol-1

Hence, the cell constant and moral conductivity of 0.02 M NaCl will be 2.345 × 10-3 s cm-1 and 117.25 s m2 mol-1, respectively.

Define the following terms: Molar conductivity (m)


Molar conductivity denoted by the symbol Λm is related to the conductivity of the solution by the equation (k is the conductivity and c is the concentration).


Conductivity always decreases with decrease in concentration both, for weak and strong electrolytes because of the fact that ____________.

Match the items of Column I and Column II on the basis of data given below:

`E_("F"_2//"F"^-)^Θ` = 2.87 V, `"E"_(("Li"^(+))//("Li"^-))^Θ` = − 3.5V, `"E"_(("Au"^(3+))//("Au"))^Θ` = 1.4 V, `"E"_(("Br"_(2))//("Br"^-))^Θ` = 1.09 V

Column I Column II
(i) F2 (a) metal is the strongest reducing agent
(ii) Li (b) metal ion which is the weakest oxidising agent
(iii) Au3+ (c) non metal which is the best oxidising agent
(iv) Br (d) unreactive metal

Assertion: Λm for weak electrolytes shows a sharp increase when the electrolytic solution is diluted.

Reason: For weak electrolytes degree of dissociation increases with dilution of solution.

The following questions are case-based questions. Read the passage carefully and answer the questions that follow:

Rahul set up an experiment to find the resistance of aqueous KCl solution for different concentrations at 298 K using a conductivity cell connected to a Wheatstone bridge. He fed the Wheatstone bridge with a.c. power in the audio frequency range 550 to 5000 cycles per second. Once the resistance was calculated from the null point, he also calculated the conductivity K and molar conductivity ∧m and recorded his readings in tabular form.
