Example
Equivalent conductance of 0.001028 N acetic acid solution is 48.15 ohm-1cm2 and
390.6 ohm-1cm2 of infinite diluted solution. Calculate the degree of dissociation.
Solution
=/0
=48.15 ohm-1cm2 /390.6 ohm-1cm2
=0.1232
KC = 2C/1-
KC=(0.1232)(0.001028)/(1-0.1232)
=1.781x10-5
Salts like AgCl, BaSO4, CaCO3, Ag2CrO4, PbSO4, PbS, Fe(OH)3 etc. are ordinarily
regarded as sparingly soluble and have a very small but definite solubility in water.
The solubility of such sparingly soluble salts is obtained by determining the specific
conductivity () of a saturated salt solution.
AgCl Ag+ + ClAssume concentration of solid is a constant.
Concentration of Ag+= concentration of Cl- = C
Ksp = [Ag+aq] [Cl-aq]
Ksp = C2
The measurement of the specific conductivity, of the saturated solution leads to a
value of the concentration.
C = / 0
i.e.
or
S= / 0
With the help of specific conductivity of water, the ionic product of water can be
determined. The ionization of water may be represented as,
H2O H+ + OHThe product of the concentrations of H+ and OH ions expressed in mol/L is called
ionic product of water and is represented by Kw.
[H+] [OH-] = Kw
The measured specific conductivity of the purest form of water is 0.055 x 10-6 S cm-1.
The molar conductance is given by
m = Kv x 18
Thus, = 0.055 x 10-6 x 18
= 0.990 x 10-6 Scm2mol-1
The molar conductance of water at infinite dilution can be obtained by
m (H2O) = (H+) + (OH-)
Therefore, (H2O) = 349.8 + 198.5 = 548.30 Scm2mol-1
and for water, = m /
= 0.055 x 10-3 x 18/ 548.3
CH+= COH= 0.055 x 10-3 x 18/ 548.3
(Concentration of water = 1000/18 = 55.55 M
CH+= COH= x 55.55 x 10-9
= 1.806 x 55.55 = 1.003 x 10-7
Kw = (1.003 x 10-7)
= (1.006 x 10-14)
6- Determination of Ionic Mobility of an Ion
Hypothesis a solution contains C equi of 1:1 electrolyte. the applied voltage is E
,volt.cm-1.The passing current is:
I=E/R
If the electrolyte is strong=C++C- .The cation cross U+ distance in sec toward cathode
and anions cross U- distance in sec toward anode.i.e
Where is the hydrolysis degree and C is the salt equivalent concentration, thus:
s=(1- ) C +a+ b
= (s- C)/ a- C
C can be determined from measurements of equivalent conductance of aniline
chloride dissolved in aniline. The aniline is a weak base ,so it retarded the dissolution
of salt and C is somewhat equal of equivalent conductance of non decomposed salt..
while a is determined from ionic conductance of its ions.
The hydrolysis constant(Kh) of aniline chloride can be represents as following:
Kh=[ H3O+][ C6H5NH2]/ [C6H5NH3+]
Kh=(C) (C)/(1-)C
Kh=2C/1-
Kh can be used to calculation of decomposition constant of base(Kb) as following:
Kh=Kw/Kb
Where Kw is a ion product of water.
