For a strong electrolyte, the molar conductivity Ξ›β‚˜ varies with concentration c according to Debye-Huckel-Onsager equation as:
A.
Ξ›β‚˜ = Ξ›Β°β‚˜ Γ— √c
B.
Ξ›β‚˜ = Ξ›Β°β‚˜ - A√c
C.
Ξ›β‚˜ = Ξ›Β°β‚˜ + A√c
D.
Ξ›β‚˜ = Ξ›Β°β‚˜ - Ac
ANSWER :
B. Ξ›β‚˜ = Ξ›Β°β‚˜ - A√c
15.
Limiting molar conductivity Ξ›Β°β‚˜ for a weak electrolyte CANNOT be obtained by extrapolation from Ξ›β‚˜ vs √c plot because:

Ξ›β‚˜ for weak electrolytes increases with √c
B.
Weak electrolytes do not give a linear plot
C.
Ξ›Β°β‚˜ for weak electrolytes is zero
D.
The plot does not show steep increase at low concentration regions; Ξ›β‚˜ approaches Ξ›Β°β‚˜ very slowly
ANSWER :
D. The plot does not show steep increase at low concentration regions; Ξ›β‚˜ approaches Ξ›Β°β‚˜ very slowly
