How does the degree of ionization (assuming lt lt 1)` of a weak electroyte vary with concentration ? Give exact relationship.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`alpha=sqrt(K_(i)//C)`. It is called Ostwald's dilution law (`K_(i)` is ionization constant and C is molar concentration of the eletrolyte).
