Q.

Plotting against for aqueous solutions of a monobasic weak acid (HX) resulted in a straight line with y-axis intercept of and slope of . The ratio is

[ = molar conductivity, = limiting molar conductivity, = molar concentration, = dissociation constant of HX]

  1. A

  2. B

  3. C

  4. D

Solution

Degree of dissociation. For the weak acid, .

Ostwald dilution law. , which rearranges to . Substituting :

Dividing both sides by and rearranging gives the standard linear form:

Identify slope and intercept. Plotting (y-axis) against (x-axis):

Ratio. .
