Define limiting molar conductivity.
Define the following term:
Limiting molar conductivity (∧°m)
Advertisements
Solution 1
The limiting molar conductivity of an electrolyte is defined as its molar conductivity when the concentration of the electrolyte in the solution approaches zero.
Solution 2
When the concentration of an electrolytic solution placed between electrodes of a conductivity cell placed at a unit distance having an area of cross-section sufficient to accommodate enough volume of solution containing one mole of electrolyte approaches zero, then the conductance of the solution is known as limiting molar conductivity.
