Solution and Explanation
Kohlrausch's Law of Independent Migration of Ions
The Kohlrausch law of independent migration of ions states that the molar conductivity of an electrolyte at infinite dilution is the sum of the individual contributions from its cation and anion.
This implies that each ion contributes independently to the total conductivity, and the total can be obtained by simply adding the limiting molar conductivities of each ion.
Mathematical Expression:
\[ \Lambda_m^\infty = \lambda_+^\infty + \lambda_-^\infty \]
Where:
- \( \Lambda_m^\infty \): Molar conductivity at infinite dilution
- \( \lambda_+^\infty \): Limiting molar conductivity of the cation
- \( \lambda_-^\infty \): Limiting molar conductivity of the anion
This law is particularly useful for calculating unknown molar conductivities and analyzing electrolyte behavior in dilute solutions.
