The limiting molar conductivities of HCl, `CH_(3)COONa` and NaCl are respectively 425,90 and 125 mho `cm^(2)mol^(-1)` at `25^(@)C`. The molar conductivity of 0.1 M `CH_(3)COOH` solution is 7.8 mho `cm^(2)mol^(-1)` at the same temperature. The degree of dissociation of 0.1 M acetic acid solution at the same temperature isA. 0.1B. 0.02C. 0.15D. 0.03

Answer» Correct Answer - B
`wedge^(@)` for `CH_(3)COOH=lamda_(CH_(3)COO^(-))^(@)+lamda_(Na^(+))^(@)`
`lamda_(H^(+))^(@)+lamda_(Cl^(-))^(@)-lamda_(Na^(+))^(@)-lamda_(Cl^(-))^(@)`
`=lamda_(CH_(3)COO^(-))^(@)+lamda_(H^(+))^(@)`
`=90+425-125=390mho" "cm^(2)mol^(-1)`
Degree of dissociation`(alpha)=(wedge_(m)^(@))/(wedge_(m)^(@))=(7.8)/(390)=0.02`
