From these data calculate the limiting molar conductivity of NH4OH. If = 28, 9.6,
3.3 S cm2 mol-1 at 0.001, 0.01 and 0.1M, respectively, what is its degree of
ionization () at these concentrations?
Solution:
NH4NO3 + KOH KNO3 + NH4OH
0M NH4OH = (NH4+) + (OH-)
= 0M (KOH) + 0M (NH4NO3) - 0M (KNO3)
1/ M = 1/ 0M + CM/Ka(0M)2
1/ M =[ 1/Ka(0M)2]x CM + 1/ 0M resembles the linear equation y=mx + b
So y (1/ M) vs. x (CM) was plotted.

Solution:
Ka= 2c/ (1-) 1/= 1+ c/Ka which is a linear equation y=mx +b. If y is 1/ and x is c, then
the slope would be m= 1/Ka
A plot of 1/ vs. c was constructed.

The plot generates the equation of the line y = 3,279.54713x + 1.65911. The slope m= 1/Ka
would become Ka= 1/m.

The conductivity, at 18oC, of a saturated silver iodate solution is 1.9 x 10-3 S m-1
more than the water used to prepare the solution. The sum of the ionic limiting molar
conductivity of Ag+ and IO3- is found from measurements on more soluble salts to be 0.00873 S
m2 mol-1. (a) Calculate its solubility product at 18oC. (b) What value of the solubility is obtained if
it is assumed that no species other than Ag+ and IO3- is present in the solution?
Solution:
M= /c C= / M
C= 1.9 x 10-3 S m-1/ 0.00873 S m2 mol-1
C= 0.2176 mol m-3
Ksp= [Ag+][IO3-] =(0.2176 mol m-3)2
(a)
Ksp= 0.04734 mol2 mol-6
(b) solubility= 0.2176 mol m-3
solubility= 0.2176 mol m-3

The moving boundary method was applied to a 0.02000 mol/dm3 aqueous NaCl
o
solution at 25 C using CdCl2 as the following solution. For a current held constant at 1.600mA, it
was found that the boundary moved 10.00 cm in 3453s in a tube of average cross-sectional
area 0.1115 cm2. The conductivity of this NaCl solution at 25oC is 0.002313 S cm-1. Calculate
uNa+ and tNa+ in this solution.
Solution:

= 0.002313 S cm-1/(1x 9.648x104 C/mol)
Na+ = 2.3974 x 10-8
