The observed molar mass determined for Na ₂ SO ₄ by freezing point depression method is 50.0 ~g / mol . The molecular weight of Na ₂ SO ₄ is 142 . What will be the degree of dissociation for Na ₂ SO ₄ in water?
Options
- A0.23
- B0.18
- C0.78
- D0.92
Correct answer
D. 0.92
Step-by-step solution
van't Hoff factor, aligned i & = ( Molar mass )_ calculated ( Molar mass )_ observed & = 142 50 =2.84 aligned Na ₂ SO ₄ is an electrolyte in water = i-1 n-1 = 2.84 3-1 =0.92
