Which of the following expression correctly represents the equivalent conductivity at infinite dilution of Al2(SO4)3?
Given that λ∘Al3+ and λ∘SO2−4 are the equivalent conductivities at infinite dilution of the respective ions.
The correct option is B. λ∘Al3++λ∘SO2−4
Al2(SO4)3⟶2Al3++3SO2−4
"Kohlrausch's law states that the equivalent conductivity of an electrolyte at infinite dilution is equal to the sum of the conductances of the anions and cations."
λoAl2(SO4)3=2λoAl3++3λoSO2−4
Since equivalent conductance are given only for cation and anion, the equivalent conductance at infinite dilution is: λ∘Al3++λ∘SO2−4
