Show Hint
For molar conductance:
Strong electrolytes show a linear dependence of \(\Lambda_m\) on \(\sqrt{C}\), with gradual decreases at higher concentrations.
Weak electrolytes exhibit non-linear dependence due to incomplete ionization, with \(\Lambda_m\) leveling off as concentration increases.
Correct Answer: 2
Solution and Explanation
1. Analysis of the Graph:
The graph shows the molar conductance \(\Lambda_m\) vs. \(\sqrt{C}\) for two electrolytes, A and B.
A exhibits a linear decrease in \(\Lambda_m\) with \(\sqrt{C}\), characteristic of a strong electrolyte.
B exhibits a sharp decrease, leveling off at higher concentrations, characteristic of a weak electrolyte.
2. Key Points to Identify the Incorrect Statements:
Statement 1: "Electrolyte A is a strong electrolyte because \(\Lambda_m\) extrapolates linearly to \(\Lambda_m^\circ\)."
\[Incorrect. \quad \text{Strong electrolytes show linear dependence on } \sqrt{C}.\]
Statement 2: "Electrolyte B is a weak electrolyte, as \(\Lambda_m\) does not extrapolate linearly to \(\Lambda_m^\circ\)."
\[Correct. \quad \text{Weak electrolytes exhibit non-linear behavior due to incomplete dissociation.}\]
Statement 3: "For strong electrolytes, \(\Lambda_m\) decreases significantly with increasing \(\sqrt{C}\)."
\[Incorrect. \quad \text{For strong electrolytes, the decrease in \(\Lambda_m\) with increasing \(\sqrt{C}\) is gradual, not significant.}\]
Statement 4: "Weak electrolytes exhibit a sharp decrease in \(\Lambda_m\) at low concentrations due to incomplete dissociation."
\[Correct. \quad \text{This behavior is due to the concentration dependence of ionization.}\]
3. Number of Incorrect Statements:
Only Statement 3 is incorrect. Statements A and C are correct.
