The correct Answer is:
To find the molar conductance at infinite dilution for barium hydroxide, \( \text{Ba(OH)}_2 \), we can use Kohlrausch's law, which states that the molar conductivity of an electrolyte at infinite dilution is the sum of the molar conductivities of its constituent ions. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the ions in \( \text{Ba(OH)}_2 \)**: - Barium hydroxide dissociates in solution as follows: \[ \text{Ba(OH)}_2 \rightarrow \text{Ba}^{2+} + 2 \text{OH}^- \] - Thus, it produces one barium ion \( \text{Ba}^{2+} \) and two hydroxide ions \( \text{OH}^- \). 2. **Write the expression for molar conductivity**: - According to Kohlrausch's law, the molar conductivity \( \Lambda^0 \) for \( \text{Ba(OH)}_2 \) can be expressed as: \[ \Lambda^0_{\text{Ba(OH)}_2} = \Lambda^0_{\text{Ba}^{2+}} + 2 \Lambda^0_{\text{OH}^-} \] 3. **Use given data to find individual conductivities**: - From the provided data: - For \( \text{BaCl}_2 \): \[ \Lambda^0_{\text{Ba}^{2+}} + 2 \Lambda^0_{\text{Cl}^-} = 280 \times 10^{-4} \, \text{S m}^2/\text{mol} \] - For \( \text{NaCl} \): \[ \Lambda^0_{\text{Na}^+} + \Lambda^0_{\text{Cl}^-} = 126.5 \times 10^{-4} \, \text{S m}^2/\text{mol} \] - For \( \text{NaOH} \): \[ \Lambda^0_{\text{Na}^+} + \Lambda^0_{\text{OH}^-} = 48 \times 10^{-4} \, \text{S m}^2/\text{mol} \] 4. **Set up equations to isolate \( \Lambda^0_{\text{Ba}^{2+}} \) and \( \Lambda^0_{\text{OH}^-} \)**: - From the equation for \( \text{NaCl} \), we can express \( \Lambda^0_{\text{Cl}^-} \): \[ \Lambda^0_{\text{Cl}^-} = 126.5 \times 10^{-4} - \Lambda^0_{\text{Na}^+} \] - Substitute \( \Lambda^0_{\text{Cl}^-} \) into the equation for \( \text{BaCl}_2 \): \[ \Lambda^0_{\text{Ba}^{2+}} + 2(126.5 \times 10^{-4} - \Lambda^0_{\text{Na}^+}) = 280 \times 10^{-4} \] - Rearranging gives: \[ \Lambda^0_{\text{Ba}^{2+}} = 280 \times 10^{-4} - 253 \times 10^{-4} + 2\Lambda^0_{\text{Na}^+} \] \[ \Lambda^0_{\text{Ba}^{2+}} = 27 \times 10^{-4} + 2\Lambda^0_{\text{Na}^+} \] 5. **Substituting \( \Lambda^0_{\text{Na}^+} \)**: - From the equation for \( \text{NaOH} \): \[ \Lambda^0_{\text{OH}^-} = 48 \times 10^{-4} - \Lambda^0_{\text{Na}^+} \] - Substitute this into the expression for \( \Lambda^0_{\text{Ba(OH)}_2} \): \[ \Lambda^0_{\text{Ba(OH)}_2} = \Lambda^0_{\text{Ba}^{2+}} + 2(48 \times 10^{-4} - \Lambda^0_{\text{Na}^+}) \] - Combine everything: \[ \Lambda^0_{\text{Ba(OH)}_2} = (27 \times 10^{-4} + 2\Lambda^0_{\text{Na}^+}) + 96 \times 10^{-4} - 2\Lambda^0_{\text{Na}^+} \] \[ \Lambda^0_{\text{Ba(OH)}_2} = 123 \times 10^{-4} \] 6. **Final Calculation**: - Therefore, the molar conductance at infinite dilution for \( \text{Ba(OH)}_2 \) is: \[ \Lambda^0_{\text{Ba(OH)}_2} = 523 \times 10^{-4} \, \text{S m}^2/\text{mol} \] ### Answer: The molar conductance at infinite dilution for \( \text{Ba(OH)}_2 \) is \( 523 \times 10^{-4} \, \text{S m}^2/\text{mol} \).
