Redox Reactions And Electrochemistry Ques 572
Question: When a concentrated solution of an electrolyte is diluted
Options:
A) its specific conductance increases.
B) its equivalent conductivity decreases.
C) its specific conductivity decreases and equivalent conductivity increases.
D) both specific and equivalent conductivity increase.
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: C
Solution:
[c] On dilution number of ions decrease in unit volume hence specific conductance decreases. But separation between ions also increase hence equivalent conductance increases.
