As we have learnt,

 

Formula for limiting molar conductivity for electrolyte -

\Lambda_{m}^{0}= \lambda _{+}^{0}.\nu _{+}\:+\:\nu _{-}.\lambda_{-}^{0}

\lambda _{+}^{0}\:and\:\lambda_{-}^{0}

are limiting molar conductivities of cation and anion respectively.

- wherein

if an electrolyte on dissociation gives \nu_{+} \:cation\:and\: \nu_{-} anions.

 

 \Lambda^o_{NaNO_3} = \Lambda^{0}_{NaCl} + \Lambda^{0}_{KNO_3} -\Lambda^{0}_{KCl} = 128 + 111 - 152 = 87

 


Option 1)

101 S cm2 mol-1 

Option 2)

87 S cm2 mol-1 

Option 3)

-101 S cm2 mol-1 

Option 4)

-391 S cm2 mol-1
