The correct Answer is:
To find the molar conductivity at infinite dilution of acetic acid (CH₃COOH), we can use the Kohlrausch's Law, which states that the molar conductivity at infinite dilution is the sum of the molar conductivities of the individual ions. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Molar Conductivities**: - Given values: - Molar conductivity of NaCl (Λₘ(NaCl)) = 126.4 S cm² mol⁻¹ - Molar conductivity of HCl (Λₘ(HCl)) = 425.9 S cm² mol⁻¹ - Molar conductivity of sodium acetate (Λₘ(CH₃COONa)) = 91.0 S cm² mol⁻¹ 2. **Write the Molar Conductivity Expressions**: - For NaCl: \[ Λₘ(NaCl) = Λ(Na^+) + Λ(Cl^-) \] - For HCl: \[ Λₘ(HCl) = Λ(H^+) + Λ(Cl^-) \] - For sodium acetate: \[ Λₘ(CH₃COONa) = Λ(Na^+) + Λ(CH₃COO^-) \] 3. **Set Up the Equation for Acetic Acid**: - For acetic acid (CH₃COOH): \[ Λₘ(CH₃COOH) = Λ(H^+) + Λ(CH₃COO^-) \] 4. **Relate the Conductivities**: - We can express the molar conductivity of acetic acid in terms of the other three: \[ Λ(CH₃COOH) = Λ(CH₃COO^-) + Λ(H^+) = Λ(CH₃COONa) + Λ(HCl) - Λ(NaCl) \] 5. **Substitute the Given Values**: - Substitute the known values into the equation: \[ Λ(CH₃COOH) = 91.0 + 425.9 - 126.4 \] 6. **Calculate**: - Perform the calculation: \[ Λ(CH₃COOH) = 91.0 + 425.9 - 126.4 = 390.5 \, \text{S cm}^2 \text{mol}^{-1} \] ### Final Answer: The molar conductivity at infinite dilution of acetic acid (CH₃COOH) is **390.5 S cm² mol⁻¹**. ---
