In an aqueous solution, how does specific conductivity of electrolytes change with addition of water ? |
|
Answer» Solution :* SPECIFIC CONDUCTIVITY of solution decreases with DILUTION of solution. * On addition of water to the electrolytic solution, i.e., on dilution the interionic distance between ions get increases. So, number of ions in specific volume of solution get decreases. and hence, specific conductivity get decreases on dilution. |
