QuestionElectrochemistry / conductance at equivalence

During the titration of 50·0 mL of a 0·10 mol L⁻¹ solution of acetic acid (Kₐ = 1·8×10⁻⁵) with a 0·10 mol L⁻¹ solution of sodium hydroxide, the specific conductance after addition of 50·0 mL of sodium hydroxide will be : (Given : \(\lambda^o_{CH_3COO^-}\) = 40·9×10⁻⁴ S m²mol⁻¹, \(\lambda^o_{Na^+}\) = 50·1×10⁻⁴ S m²mol⁻¹)

  1. (a) 0·455 S m⁻¹
  2. (b) 0·910 mS m⁻¹
