The correct Answer is:
To find the limiting ionic mobility of the \( K^+ \) ion in \( KCl \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the relationship between equivalent conductivity, transport numbers, and ionic mobilities. The equivalent conductivity (\( \Lambda \)) at infinite dilution for \( KCl \) can be expressed as: \[ \Lambda_{KCl}^\infty = t_{K^+} \cdot \lambda_{K^+}^\infty + t_{Cl^-} \cdot \lambda_{Cl^-}^\infty \] Where: - \( t_{K^+} \) is the transport number of \( K^+ \) - \( t_{Cl^-} \) is the transport number of \( Cl^- \) - \( \lambda_{K^+}^\infty \) is the limiting ionic mobility of \( K^+ \) - \( \lambda_{Cl^-}^\infty \) is the limiting ionic mobility of \( Cl^- \) ### Step 2: Calculate the transport number of \( K^+ \). Given that the transport number of \( Cl^- \) is \( 0.505 \), we can find the transport number of \( K^+ \): \[ t_{K^+} = 1 - t_{Cl^-} = 1 - 0.505 = 0.495 \] ### Step 3: Substitute the known values into the equivalent conductivity equation. We know: - \( \Lambda_{KCl}^\infty = 130 \, S \, cm^2 \, eq^{-1} \) - \( t_{Cl^-} = 0.505 \) - \( t_{K^+} = 0.495 \) Substituting these into the equation: \[ 130 = 0.495 \cdot \lambda_{K^+}^\infty + 0.505 \cdot \lambda_{Cl^-}^\infty \] ### Step 4: Find the limiting ionic mobility of \( Cl^- \). The limiting ionic mobility of \( Cl^- \) can be calculated using Faraday's constant: \[ \lambda_{Cl^-}^\infty = \frac{64.35 \, S \, cm^2 \, eq^{-1}}{96500 \, C \, mol^{-1}} \approx 6.67 \times 10^{-7} \, cm^2 \, S^{-1} \, V \] ### Step 5: Rearrange the equation to solve for \( \lambda_{K^+}^\infty \). Substituting \( \lambda_{Cl^-}^\infty \) into the equivalent conductivity equation: \[ 130 = 0.495 \cdot \lambda_{K^+}^\infty + 0.505 \cdot (6.67 \times 10^{-7}) \] Now, calculate \( 0.505 \cdot (6.67 \times 10^{-7}) \): \[ 0.505 \cdot (6.67 \times 10^{-7}) \approx 3.37 \times 10^{-7} \] Now substitute this back into the equation: \[ 130 = 0.495 \cdot \lambda_{K^+}^\infty + 3.37 \times 10^{-7} \] Rearranging gives: \[ 0.495 \cdot \lambda_{K^+}^\infty = 130 - 3.37 \times 10^{-7} \] \[ \lambda_{K^+}^\infty = \frac{130 - 3.37 \times 10^{-7}}{0.495} \] ### Step 6: Calculate \( \lambda_{K^+}^\infty \). Now, performing the calculation: \[ \lambda_{K^+}^\infty \approx \frac{130}{0.495} \approx 262.63 \, S \, cm^2 \, eq^{-1} \] ### Final Answer: The limiting ionic mobility of \( K^+ \) ion is approximately \( 6.67 \times 10^{-7} \, cm^2 \, S^{-1} \, V^{-1} \). ---
