Explain Kohlrausch law of independent migration of ions.

Answer»

SOLUTION :* Law: The law STATES that LIMITING molar conductivity of an electrolyte can be represented as the sum of the individual contributions of the anion and cation of the electrolyte.
* For example, if limiting molar conductivity of positive and negative ions is `lamda_(m^(+))^(@) and lamda_(m^(-))^(@)`, respectively then limiting molar conductivity of solution `(lamda_(m)^(@))` will be as FOLLOWS:
`Lamda_(m)^(@)=v_(+)lamda_(m^(+))^(@)+v_(-)lamda_(m^(-))^(@)`
* Explanation:
If `K^(+)` of `lamda_(m^(+))^(@)=73.5` and
`lamda_(m^(-))^(@)` of `Br^(-)=78.1" S "cm^(2)mol^(-1)` then limiting molar conductivity of KBr solution at infinite dilution is as follows.
`Lamda_(m)^(@)(KBr)=lamda_(m)^(@)(K^(+))+lamda_(m)^(@)(Br^(-))`
`=73.5+78.1`
`=151.6" S "cm^(2)mol^(-1)`
