Q25 / 160 · TS EAMCET 2021 (05 Aug Shift 2) · Chemistry

Given λ°Mg2+=106 S cm2 mole-1, λ°SO42-=160 S cm2 mole-1. The value of λ°MgSO4 (in S cm2 mole-1)  is

  • A
    271.6
  • Correct answer
    B
    212
  • C
    390
  • D
    126

Solution

This question is based on kohlrauschs law, according to this law, at infinite dilution, when electrolyte is complete dissociated then each ion makes a definite contribution towards molar conductivity of the electrolyte irrespective of the nature of the other ion with which it is associated. 

λ0[MgSO4] = λ0[Mg+2]+ [SO4-2]λ0[MgSO4] =[106 S cm2mole-1] +[106 S cm2mole-1] λ0[MgSO4] =212 cm2mole-1

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
