The correct Answer is:
To find the molar conductivity of Ba(OH)₂ at infinite dilution, we can use the molar ionic conductivities of the strong electrolytes provided: NaOH, NaCl, and BaCl₂. The molar conductivity of Ba(OH)₂ can be calculated using the contributions from its constituent ions. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the ions in Ba(OH)₂**: - Ba(OH)₂ dissociates into Ba²⁺ and 2 OH⁻ ions. - Thus, the total molar conductivity (Λ°) of Ba(OH)₂ can be expressed as: \[ \Lambda°_{Ba(OH)₂} = \Lambda°_{Ba^{2+}} + 2 \Lambda°_{OH^{-}} \] 2. **Find the molar conductivity of Ba²⁺**: - Ba²⁺ comes from BaCl₂. The dissociation of BaCl₂ gives one Ba²⁺ and two Cl⁻ ions. - Therefore, we can express the molar conductivity of BaCl₂ as: \[ \Lambda°_{BaCl₂} = \Lambda°_{Ba^{2+}} + 2 \Lambda°_{Cl^{-}} \] - Given that the molar conductivity of BaCl₂ is 300 mho cm² mol⁻¹, we can write: \[ 300 = \Lambda°_{Ba^{2+}} + 2 \Lambda°_{Cl^{-}} \quad \text{(1)} \] 3. **Find the molar conductivity of NaOH**: - NaOH dissociates into Na⁺ and OH⁻ ions. - Therefore, the molar conductivity of NaOH can be expressed as: \[ \Lambda°_{NaOH} = \Lambda°_{Na^{+}} + \Lambda°_{OH^{-}} \] - Given that the molar conductivity of NaOH is 250 mho cm² mol⁻¹, we can write: \[ 250 = \Lambda°_{Na^{+}} + \Lambda°_{OH^{-}} \quad \text{(2)} \] 4. **Find the molar conductivity of NaCl**: - NaCl dissociates into Na⁺ and Cl⁻ ions. - Therefore, the molar conductivity of NaCl can be expressed as: \[ \Lambda°_{NaCl} = \Lambda°_{Na^{+}} + \Lambda°_{Cl^{-}} \] - Given that the molar conductivity of NaCl is 125 mho cm² mol⁻¹, we can write: \[ 125 = \Lambda°_{Na^{+}} + \Lambda°_{Cl^{-}} \quad \text{(3)} \] 5. **Solve equations (2) and (3)**: - From equation (3), we can express \(\Lambda°_{Na^{+}}\) as: \[ \Lambda°_{Na^{+}} = 125 - \Lambda°_{Cl^{-}} \quad \text{(4)} \] - Substitute equation (4) into equation (2): \[ 250 = (125 - \Lambda°_{Cl^{-}}) + \Lambda°_{OH^{-}} \] \[ 250 = 125 - \Lambda°_{Cl^{-}} + \Lambda°_{OH^{-}} \] \[ \Lambda°_{OH^{-}} - \Lambda°_{Cl^{-}} = 125 \quad \text{(5)} \] 6. **Substitute equation (5) into equation (1)**: - Substitute \(\Lambda°_{OH^{-}} = \Lambda°_{Cl^{-}} + 125\) into equation (1): \[ 300 = \Lambda°_{Ba^{2+}} + 2(\Lambda°_{Cl^{-}}) \] \[ 300 = \Lambda°_{Ba^{2+}} + 2\Lambda°_{Cl^{-}} \] - Now substitute \(\Lambda°_{OH^{-}} = \Lambda°_{Cl^{-}} + 125\) into the equation for Ba(OH)₂: \[ \Lambda°_{Ba(OH)₂} = \Lambda°_{Ba^{2+}} + 2(\Lambda°_{Cl^{-}} + 125) \] 7. **Calculate the final value**: - From equation (1), we can express \(\Lambda°_{Ba^{2+}}\): \[ \Lambda°_{Ba^{2+}} = 300 - 2\Lambda°_{Cl^{-}} \] - Substitute this back into the equation for Ba(OH)₂: \[ \Lambda°_{Ba(OH)₂} = (300 - 2\Lambda°_{Cl^{-}}) + 2(\Lambda°_{Cl^{-}} + 125) \] \[ = 300 - 2\Lambda°_{Cl^{-}} + 2\Lambda°_{Cl^{-}} + 250 \] \[ = 300 + 250 = 550 \text{ mho cm}² \text{ mol}^{-1} \] Thus, the molar conductivity of Ba(OH)₂ at infinite dilution is **550 mho cm² mol⁻¹**.
