As we have learnt,

 

Application of Kohlrausch's law -

Determination of Degree of dissociation of weak electrolytes.

- wherein

Degree of dissociation

\alpha = \frac{\Lambda m}{\Lambda_{m}^{0} }

 

 \\*\alpha = \frac{\Lambda_m}{\Lambda_m^o} = \frac{12.8}{42 + 288.42} = 0.0387 \\*\%\;dissociation = 100\times \alpha = 3.87\%

 


Option 1)

39%

Option 2)

3.9%

Option 3)

0.35%

Option 4)

0.039%
