Consider an aqueous solution of HCl and Ca(NO3)2 with the following concentrations: [HCl] = 0.30 M, [Ca(NO3)2] = 0.10 M.

(a) Calculate the conductivity of this solution at 25 oC.
(b) Calculate the resistance of a cylinder of this solution with the diameter of 2.0 cm and the length of 10 cm. Electrodes are located at the opposite ends of the cylinder.

Homework Answers

Answer #1

a. Both substances are strong electrolytes (completely dissociated).

Val=equivalent

[H+] = 0.3 val/L

[Cl-] =0.3 val/L

[Ca2+] = 0.2 val/L

[NO3-] = 0.2 val/L

The equivalent ionic conductivities (from the table) have to be summed as λC to obtain the equivalent conductivity k of the solution:

k = 349.0x0.3 + 76.3x0.3 + 59.5x0.2 + 71.4x0.2 = 154 (mho.cm2/val).(val/1000 cm3)=

    = 0.154 mho.cm

b. The resistivity ρ is

ρ = 1/k = 1/0.154 mho.cm = 6.50 Ω/cm

The resistance R = ρ. l /A

R = 6.50 Ω/cm · 10 cm / (3.14x 1 cm2) = 21 Ω
