For a concentrated solution of a weak electrolyte (Keq={K}_{eq} =equilibrium constant) A2B3{A}_{2}{B}_{3} of concentration ‘C’,‘ C ’ , the degree of dissociation ‘α’‘ \alpha ’ is

Options

  1. A(Keq5c4)15\left(\dfrac{{K}_{eq}}{5{c}^{4}}\right)\dfrac{1}{5}
  2. B(Keq108c4)15\left(\dfrac{{K}_{eq}}{108{c}^{4}}\right)\dfrac{1}{5}
  3. C(Keq25c2)15\left(\dfrac{{K}_{eq}}{25{c}^{2}}\right)\dfrac{1}{5}
  4. D(Keq6c5)15\left(\dfrac{{K}_{eq}}{6{c}^{5}}\right)\dfrac{1}{5}

Correct answer

B. (Keq108c4)15\left(\dfrac{{K}_{eq}}{108{c}^{4}}\right)\dfrac{1}{5}

Step-by-step solution

Given that concentration of A2B3{A}_{2}{B}_{3} is CC and degree of dissociation is α\alpha

The equilibrium reaction of weak electrolyte A2B3{A}_{2}{B}_{3} is

{A2B3⇌2A3++3B2−C−−↓↓↓C(1−α)2Cα3Cα\begin{cases}{A}_{2}{B}_{3} & ⇌ 2{A}^{3 +} & + 3{B}^{2 -} \\ C & - & - \\ ↓ & ↓ & ↓ \\ C ( 1 - \alpha ) & 2C\alpha & 3C\alpha\end{cases}

Now, The equilibrium constant is the ratio of the concentrations of reactants and products raised to the stoichiometric coefficients.

Keq=(2Cα)2(3Cα)3C(1−α)=108C4α5{K}_{eq} = \dfrac{( 2C \alpha{)}^{2} ( 3C \alpha{)}^{3}}{C ( 1 - \alpha )} = 108{C}^{4}{\alpha}^{5}

Keq108C4=α5⇒α=(Keq108C4)15\dfrac{{K}_{eq}}{108{C}^{4}} = {\alpha}^{5} ⇒ \alpha = \left(\dfrac{{K}_{eq}}{108{C}^{4}}\right)\dfrac{1}{5}
