Solution

The correct option is D 50.7%
equivalent conductivity of monobar'c acid at infinite dilution m=348Ω1cm2eq1
Amount of acid =15g
Molar mass =49
Molarity = 1549/1litre=0.306M
Resistivity = 18.5 ohm cm
conductivity = 118.5=0.054
Molar conductivity = 0.0540.306×103
m=176.64
dissociation constant α=mm=176.64348
=0.507
50.7%
option D
