The correct Answer is:
To determine which of the given relations is incorrect, we need to analyze each statement carefully. Let's break it down step by step. ### Step 1: Analyze the first relation The first relation states: \[ \Lambda_m = K \times V \] Where: - \(\Lambda_m\) is the molar conductivity, - \(K\) is the conductivity, - \(V\) is the volume. **Understanding Molar Conductivity:** Molar conductivity (\(\Lambda_m\)) is defined as: \[ \Lambda_m = \frac{K}{C} \] Where \(C\) is the concentration (in mol/L). **Rearranging the equation:** From the definition, we can express conductivity (\(K\)) in terms of molar conductivity and concentration: \[ K = \Lambda_m \times C \] If we consider volume (\(V\)), we can relate concentration and volume: \[ C = \frac{n}{V} \] Where \(n\) is the number of moles. Thus, substituting \(C\) into the equation for \(K\): \[ K = \Lambda_m \times \frac{n}{V} \] This shows that the first relation is indeed correct. ### Step 2: Analyze the second relation The second relation states: \[ G = \frac{K \times A}{L} \] Where: - \(G\) is the conductivity, - \(K\) is the resistivity, - \(A\) is the area, - \(L\) is the length. **Understanding Conductivity:** Conductivity (\(G\)) is the reciprocal of resistivity (\(\rho\)): \[ G = \frac{1}{\rho} \] **Relating Resistivity to Resistance:** Resistivity can also be expressed in terms of resistance (\(R\)): \[ \rho = R \times \frac{A}{L} \] Thus, \[ G = \frac{1}{R \times \frac{A}{L}} = \frac{L}{R \times A} \] This means that the correct relation should be: \[ G = \frac{L}{R \times A} \] However, the relation given in the question is: \[ G = \frac{K \times A}{L} \] This indicates that \(K\) is being incorrectly used in place of resistivity. ### Conclusion: The second relation is incorrect because it misrepresents the relationship between conductivity, area, and length. Therefore, the incorrect statement is: \[ G = \frac{K \times A}{L} \] ### Final Answer: The incorrect relation is: **Option B: \(G = \frac{K \times A}{L}\)** ---
