Resistance of a conductivity cell filled with a solution of an electrolyte of concentration0.1 M is 100 ohm. The conductivity of this solution is 1.29 S m−1. Resistance of the same cell when filled with 0.2 M of the same solution is 520 ohm. The molar conductivity of 0.2M solution of the electrolyte will be:
124×10−5Sm2mol−1
Cell constant, lA=129 m−1
For 0.2 M solution,
Resistance, (R)=520 Ω
Conductivity, κ=1R×Cell constant
Conductivity, κ=1520×129
Conductivity, κ=0.248 S m−1
Λm=κC
Also, we know
1L=10−3 m3
1L−1=103 m−3
Molar concentration, (C)=0.2×103 mol m−3
Λm=0.2480.2×103
Λm=124×10−5Sm2mol−1
