The correct Answer is:
To find the molar conductivity of the HCl solution at 25°C, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Calculate the Cell Constant (B) We know that the conductivity (K) is related to the cell constant (B) and resistance (R) by the formula: \[ K = \frac{B}{R} \] From the data given for the 0.1 M KCl solution: - Resistance (R) = 85.5 ohms - Conductivity (K) = 0.01286 ohm\(^{-1}\) cm\(^{-1}\) Rearranging the formula to find B: \[ B = K \times R \] Substituting the values: \[ B = 0.01286 \, \text{ohm}^{-1} \text{cm}^{-1} \times 85.5 \, \text{ohms} \] Calculating B: \[ B = 1.0993 \, \text{cm}^{-1} \] ### Step 2: Calculate the Conductivity of the HCl Solution Now, we will use the same cell constant for the 0.005 M HCl solution, which has a resistance of 529 ohms. Using the formula again: \[ K = \frac{B}{R} \] Substituting the values: \[ K = \frac{1.0993 \, \text{cm}^{-1}}{529 \, \text{ohms}} \] Calculating K: \[ K = 0.00208 \, \text{ohm}^{-1} \text{cm}^{-1} \] ### Step 3: Calculate the Molar Conductivity of the HCl Solution The molar conductivity (\(\Lambda_m\)) is given by the formula: \[ \Lambda_m = \frac{K \times 1000}{C} \] Where: - K = conductivity of the HCl solution = 0.00208 ohm\(^{-1}\) cm\(^{-1}\) - C = concentration of the HCl solution = 0.005 M Substituting the values: \[ \Lambda_m = \frac{0.00208 \, \text{ohm}^{-1} \text{cm}^{-1} \times 1000}{0.005} \] Calculating \(\Lambda_m\): \[ \Lambda_m = \frac{2.08}{0.005} = 416 \, \text{ohm}^{-1} \text{cm}^2 \text{mol}^{-1} \] ### Final Answer The molar conductivity of the HCl solution at 25°C is: \[ \Lambda_m = 416 \, \text{ohm}^{-1} \text{cm}^2 \text{mol}^{-1} \] ---
