Question:

At 25°C, molar conductance of 0.1 molar aqueous solution of ammonium hydroxide is 9.54 ohm⁻¹cm²mol⁻¹ and at infinite dilution its molar conductance is 238 ohm⁻¹cm²mol⁻¹. The degree of ionization of ammonium hydroxide at the same concentration and temperature is:

2.080

4.008

20.800

40.800

Solution:

Degree of ionization = (λm/λm°)*100 = (9.54/238)*100 = 4.008
