The correct Answer is:
To find the equivalent conductance at infinite dilution of \( Ca_3(PO_4)_2 \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Write the dissociation equation The dissociation of \( Ca_3(PO_4)_2 \) in water can be represented as: \[ Ca_3(PO_4)_2 \rightarrow 3Ca^{2+} + 2PO_4^{3-} \] ### Step 2: Identify the ions produced From the dissociation equation, we can see that the compound produces: - 3 moles of \( Ca^{2+} \) ions - 2 moles of \( PO_4^{3-} \) ions ### Step 3: Apply Kohlrausch's Law According to Kohlrausch's Law, the equivalent conductance at infinite dilution (\( \Lambda^0 \)) of an electrolyte is the sum of the equivalent conductance of its constituent ions. Thus, we can express the equivalent conductance of \( Ca_3(PO_4)_2 \) as: \[ \Lambda^0_{Ca_3(PO_4)_2} = 3\Lambda^0_{Ca^{2+}} + 2\Lambda^0_{PO_4^{3-}} \] ### Step 4: Write the final expression The final expression for the equivalent conductance at infinite dilution of \( Ca_3(PO_4)_2 \) is: \[ \Lambda^0_{Ca_3(PO_4)_2} = 3 \cdot \Lambda^0_{Ca^{2+}} + 2 \cdot \Lambda^0_{PO_4^{3-}} \] ### Conclusion Thus, the expression that correctly represents the equivalent conductance at infinite dilution of \( Ca_3(PO_4)_2 \) is: \[ \Lambda^0_{Ca_3(PO_4)_2} = 3 \Lambda^0_{Ca^{2+}} + 2 \Lambda^0_{PO_4^{3-}} \] ---
