Question

what is expected value of van,t Hoff factor for K3 [Fe(CN)6] in dilute solutions?

Answer 1

Dear user,

The dissociative equation for K₃[Fe(CN)₆] can be written as under.

K₃[Fe(CN)₆] → 3K⁺ + [Fe(CN)₆]^3-

Therefore, number of particles after dissociation = 4

So, van’t Hoff factor = 4/1 = 4

Hope this answers your question.

All the best!!
