Question
Chemistry Question on Conductance
Choose the correct representation of conductometric titration of benzoic acid vs sodium hydroxide
A
B
C
D
Answer
Explanation
Solution
The correct answer is (C) :
(A) → (B) Free H+ ions are replaced by Na⊕ which decreases conductance.
(B) → (C) Un-dissociated benzoic acid reacts with NaOH and forms salt which increases ions & conductance increases.
(C) → (D) After equivalence point at (3), NaOH added further increases Na⊕ & OH⊙ ions which further increases the conductance.
