Question

We have taken a saturated solution of AgBr. Ksp of AgBr is 12×1014. If 107 mole of AgNO3 are added to 1 litre of this solution find conductivity (specific conductance) of this solution in terms of 107 Sm1.
Given: λ0Ag+=6×103 Sm2 mol1, λ0Br=8×103 Sm2 mol1 and λ0NO3=7×103 Sm2 mol1 [If answer is X then give answer in form of X11]

Solution

AgBrAg+S+107+BrS
Ksp=[Ag+][Br]=[S+107][S]=12×1014 ([Ag+]=107M from AgNO3)
On solving quadratic eqn. for S we get,
S=3×107 M

The solubility of AgBr in presence of 107 molar AgNO3 is 3×107M

Therefore [Br]=3×104 mol/m3,[Ag+]=4×104 mol/m3

[NO3]=104 mol/m3

We know that specific conductance, κ=λoM×M

Therefore,

κtotal=κBr+κAg++κNO3 =55×107 Sm1
X=55

Value of X11=5
