Question

Given the ionic equivalent conductivities for the following ions:
    λoeq K+ = 73.5 cm2 ohm-1 eq-1
    λoeq Al3+ = 149 cm2 ohm-1 eq-1
    λoeq SO42 =  85.8 cm2 ohm-1 eq-1
The Λoeq for potash alum (K2SO4.Al2(SO4)3.24H2O) is:

Options

A.- 245.92
B.348.3
C.368.2
D.108.52

Solution

(Eq = Charge on the ion/Total charge)
[A+] = mol × 2 = mol = Eq
[Al3+] = Eq
[SO42-] = = 1Eq
Λoeq K2SO4.Al2(SO4)3. 24H2O
 = λoeq(K+) + λoeq (Al+3) + λoeq(SO42-)
= × 73.5 + 189 × + 85.8 × 1
= 18.375 + 141.75 + 85.8
= 249.92
