Solutions — Medium JEE chemistry MCQ
Plotting $1 / \Lambda_{\mathrm{m}}$ against $\mathrm{c} \Lambda_{\mathrm{m}}$ for aqueous solutions of a monobasic weak acid (HX) resulted in a straight line with y-axis intercept of $\mathrm{P}$ and slope of $\mathrm{S}$. The ratio $\mathrm{P} / \mathrm{S}$ is
$\left[\Lambda_{\mathrm{m}}=\right.$ molar conductivity
$\Lambda_{\mathrm{m}}^{\mathrm{o}}=$ limiting molar conductivity
$\mathrm{c}=$ molar concentration
$\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{a}}=$ dissociation constant of $\mathrm{HX}$ ]
- A. $\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{a}} \Lambda_{\mathrm{m}}^{\mathrm{o}}$
- B. $\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{a}} \Lambda_{\mathrm{m}}^{\mathrm{o}} / 2$
- C. $2 \mathrm{~K}_{\mathrm{a}} \Lambda_{\mathrm{m}}^{\mathrm{o}}$
- D. $1 /\left(\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{a}} \Lambda_{\mathrm{m}}^{\mathrm{o}}\right)$
