Chemistry Question on Solutions
Which one of the following electrolytes has the same value of van't Hoff's factor (i) as that of Al2(SO4)3 (if all are 100% ionised) ?
A
Al2(SO4)3
B
K4[Fe(CN)6]
C
K2SO4
D
K3[Fe(CN)6]
Answer
K4[Fe(CN)6]
Explanation
Solution
van't Hoff factor of Al2(SO4)3−>2Al+3+3SO4−2 so n = 5 K4[Fe(CN)6]−>4K++[Fe(CN)6]−4 so n =5 ⇒ i = n =5
