X and Y are two aqueous solutions of acid HA with concentrations 0.1 M & 0.01M, respectively. In which solution will the degree of ionisation of HA be higher?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

According to Ostwald's dilution law, the degree of ionisation of a weak electrolyte increases with the increase in dilution of its aqueous solution. Since, the concentrations of solution Y is less than that of X, the degree of ionisation of HA will be higher in solution Y.
