The correct Answer is:
To calculate the molar conductivity of `NH₄OH` at infinite dilution, we can use the relationship between the molar conductivities of the ions and the overall molar conductivity of the compound. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the given data:** - Molar conductivity of `NH₄Cl` at infinite dilution, \( \Lambda^0_{NH₄Cl} = 149.7 \, \text{S cm}^2 \text{mol}^{-1} \) - Ionic conductivity of `Cl⁻`, \( \Lambda^0_{Cl^-} = 96.3 \, \text{S cm}^2 \text{mol}^{-1} \) - Ionic conductivity of `OH⁻`, \( \Lambda^0_{OH^-} = 198 \, \text{S cm}^2 \text{mol}^{-1} \) 2. **Write the formula for the molar conductivity of `NH₄OH`:** The molar conductivity of a salt at infinite dilution can be expressed as the sum of the molar conductivities of its constituent ions: \[ \Lambda^0_{NH₄OH} = \Lambda^0_{NH₄^+} + \Lambda^0_{OH^-} \] 3. **Rearrange to find \( \Lambda^0_{NH₄^+} \):** We can find the molar conductivity of the ammonium ion by rearranging the equation: \[ \Lambda^0_{NH₄^+} = \Lambda^0_{NH₄Cl} - \Lambda^0_{Cl^-} \] 4. **Substitute the known values:** \[ \Lambda^0_{NH₄^+} = 149.7 \, \text{S cm}^2 \text{mol}^{-1} - 96.3 \, \text{S cm}^2 \text{mol}^{-1} \] \[ \Lambda^0_{NH₄^+} = 53.4 \, \text{S cm}^2 \text{mol}^{-1} \] 5. **Calculate the molar conductivity of `NH₄OH`:** Now substitute \( \Lambda^0_{NH₄^+} \) and \( \Lambda^0_{OH^-} \) into the equation for \( \Lambda^0_{NH₄OH} \): \[ \Lambda^0_{NH₄OH} = 53.4 \, \text{S cm}^2 \text{mol}^{-1} + 198 \, \text{S cm}^2 \text{mol}^{-1} \] \[ \Lambda^0_{NH₄OH} = 251.4 \, \text{S cm}^2 \text{mol}^{-1} \] ### Final Answer: The molar conductivity of `NH₄OH` at infinite dilution is \( 251.4 \, \text{S cm}^2 \text{mol}^{-1} \).
