Conductance of Electrolytic Solutions Class 12

Class 12                                   Chemistry                             Electrochemistry👍👍 Variation of Conductivity and Molar Conductivity with Concentration They depend on the concentration of the electrolyte. The Conductivity and Molar Conductivity of both weak and strong electrolytes decreases with decrease in concentration as the number of ions per unitv olume carrying the current in a solution decreases on dilution. Fig. Variation of electrolytic conductivity Fig. Variation of Molar conductivity  Conductivity of a solution at a specific concentration = Conductance of solution placed in between the two platinum electrodes where Volume of solution = 1 unit  Cross sectional area of electrodes = 1unit Distance = 1unit Molar conductivity of a solution at a specific concentration = Conductance of solution where Volume of solution = V Concentration of electrolyte = 1 mole Cross sectional area of electrodes = A Distance = 1unit When the concentration approaches to zero, the molar conductivity is referred to as limiting molar conductivity. It is represented by the symbol Ëom.
