The correct Answer is:
To derive the correct expression relating equivalent conductance (Λ), specific conductance (κ), and equivalent concentration (C), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the definitions - **Equivalent Conductance (Λ)**: It is defined as the conductance of a solution containing one gram equivalent of solute when placed between two parallel electrodes that are 1 cm apart. - **Specific Conductance (κ)**: This is the conductance of a solution per unit volume and is measured in S/m (Siemens per meter). - **Equivalent Concentration (C)**: This is the number of gram equivalents of solute per liter of solution, expressed in eq/L. ### Step 2: Relate Equivalent Conductance to Specific Conductance and Volume The formula for equivalent conductance is given by: \[ Λ = κ \times V \] where V is the volume of the solution in liters that contains one gram equivalent of the solute. ### Step 3: Express Volume in terms of Concentration Since we are considering one gram equivalent of solute, we can express the volume V in terms of the equivalent concentration C: \[ V = \frac{1 \text{ eq}}{C \text{ (eq/L)}} = \frac{1}{C} \text{ L} \] ### Step 4: Substitute Volume into the Equivalent Conductance Formula Substituting the expression for volume into the equation for equivalent conductance: \[ Λ = κ \times \left(\frac{1}{C}\right) \] However, since we need to express this in SI units, we need to account for the conversion from liters to milliliters (1 L = 1000 mL). Therefore, we multiply by 1000: \[ Λ = κ \times \left(\frac{1000}{C}\right) \] ### Step 5: Final Expression Thus, the final expression relating equivalent conductance (Λ), specific conductance (κ), and equivalent concentration (C) is: \[ Λ = \frac{1000 \cdot κ}{C} \] ### Conclusion The correct expression in SI system relating equivalent conductance, specific conductance, and equivalent concentration is: \[ Λ = \frac{1000 \cdot κ}{C} \]
