QuestionSolutions / degree of dissociation

0.05 molal aqueous solution of K₄[Fe(CN)₆] freezes at –0.26˚C. Its degree of dissociation will be: (kf =1.86˚C Kg mol⁻¹)

  1. (a) 48.2 %
  2. (b) 54.9 %
  3. (c) 44.9 %
  4. (d) 51.6 %

Answer: (c) 44.9 %

ΔTf = i Kf m → i = 0.26/(1.86 × 0.05) = 2.796. K₄[Fe(CN)₆] → 4K⁺ + [Fe(CN)₆]⁴⁻, n = 5. α = (i − 1)/(n − 1) = 1.796/4 = 0.449 = 44.9% → (c).
