Conductors allow the passage of electric current through them. Metallic and electrolytic are the two types of conductors. Current carriers in metallic and electrolytic conductors are free electrons and free ions respectively. Specific conductance or conductivity of the electrolyte solution is given by the following relation: K= cx (l)/(A) where, c=1/R is the conductance and 1/A is the cell constant, Molar conductance (^^_m) and equivalence conductance (^^_e) of an electrolyte solution are calculated using the following similar relations: ^^_m = K xx (1000)/(M) ^^_(e) = K xx (1000)/(N) where, M and N are the molarity and normality of the solution respectively. Molar conductance of strong electrolyte depends on concentration : ^^_m = ^^_m^(0) - b sqrt(C) ^^_m^(0) = molar conductance at infinite dilution C = concentration of the solution b = constant The degrees of dissociation of weak electrolytes are calculated as alpha = (^^_m)/(^^_m^(0)) = (^^_e)/(^^_e^(0)) Which of the following decreases on dilution of electrolytic solution?

When an aqueous solution of CuCl_(2) is electrolysed using Pt inert electrodes, the reaction at cathode and anode respectively are

Electrolysis is the process in which electrical energy is converted to chemical energy. In electrolyte cell, oxidation takes place at anode and reduction at cathode. Electrode process depends on the electrode taken for electrolysis. Amount of substance liberated at an electrode is directly proportionation to the amount of charge passed through it. The mass of substance liberated at electrode is calculate using the following realation : m=(itE)/(96500) Here, E represent the equivalent mass and 96500 C is called the faraday constant. Faraday (96500 C) is the charge of 1 mole electron i.e., 6.023 xx 10^(23) electrons, it is used to liberate on gram equivalent of the substance. The passage of current liberates H_2 at cathode and Cl_2 at anode. The solution is

When the same charge is passed through the solutions of different electrolytes in series, the amounts of elements deposited in the electrodes are in the ratio of their

Give the electrode reactions occuring at the anode and at the cathode in H_(2),O_(2), fuel cell.
