Question

Molar conductance is used to define as the conducting power of all the ions produced by one mole of the electrolyte in the given solution.
Λm=1000×KC
Where, K = specific conductance, C = Molar concentration of the solution.
At infinite dilution, each ion makes a definite contribution for the conductance of electrolyte. At infinite dilution, the molar conductance of an electrolyte is the sum of the ionic conductance of constituent ions.
ΛABm=xA++yA+ where,x and y are the number of cations and anions per formula unit of the electrolyte. By measuring the conductance we can measure degree of dissociation and dissociation constants.
α=ΛCΛ;Ka=a2C(1α);Kb=α2C(1α)
By conductance measurements we can calculate the solubility product of a sparingly soluble salt. For a sparingly soluble salt, the saturated solution will be an extremely dilute solution and AC is taken as A. Knowing A (by Kohlrausch’s law) the concentration of saturated solution is calculated from which Ksp is calculated.
The degree of dissociation of water will be
(Λ0H+=3.458×102 Sm2 mol1;Λ0OH=1.98×102Sm2 mol1;Ka of water=5.7×106 Sm1)

Solution

The correct option is A 1.875×107%
Λ0H2O=Λ0H++A0OH=(3.458+1.98)×102Sm2mol1=5.438×102Sm2mol1
Λ0H2O=KaH2O1000×C
5.438×102=5.7×1061000×C
C=1.048×107 M
α=1.048×10755.55=1.88×109=1.88×107%
