EQUIVALENT CONDUCTIVITY OF ELECTROLYTES IN AQUEOUS SOLUTION Petr ^ This table gives the equivalent (molar) conductivity A at 25 °C for some common electrolytes in aqueous solution at concentrations up to 0.1 mol/L. The units of A are 10"4 m2 S mol"1. For very dilute solutions, the equivalent conductivity for any electrolyte of concentration c can be approximately calculated using the Debye-Huckel-Onsager equation, which can be written for a symmetrical (equal charge on cation and anion) electrolyte as A = A° - (A + 5A°)c1/2 For a solution at 25 °C and both cation and anion with charge |1|, the constants are A = 60.20 and B = 0.229. A° can be found from the next table, "Ionic Conductivity and Diffusion at Infinite Dilution." The equation is reliable for c < 0.001 mol/L; with higher concentration the error increases. _Concentration (mol/L)_ Compound Infinite dilution 0.0005 0.001 0.005 0.01 0.02 0.05 0.1 A" A(10-4 m'Smol-1) AgN03 133.29 131.29 130.45 127.14 124.70 121.35 115.18 109.09 l/2BaCl2 139.91 135.89 134.27 127.96 123.88 119.03 111.42 105.14 l/2CaCl2 135.77 131.86 130.30 124.19 120.30 115.59 108.42 102.41 l/2Ca(OH)2 258 - - 233 226 214 - - CuS04 133.6 121.6 115.20 94.02 83.08 72.16 59.02 50.55 HCl 425.95 422.53 421.15 415.59 411.80 407.04 398.89 391.13 KBr 151.9 149.8 148.9 146.02 143.36 140.41 135.61 131.32 KCl 149.79 147.74 146.88 143.48 141.20 138.27 133.30 128.90 KC104 139.97 138.69 137.80 134.09 131.39 127.86 121.56 115.14 l/3K3Fe(CN)6 174.5 166.4 163.1 150.7 - - - - l/4K4Fe(CN)6 184 — 167.16 146.02 134.76 122.76 107.65 97.82 KHC03 117.94 116.04 115.28 112.18 110.03 107.17 — — KI 150.31 148.2 143.32 144.30 142.11 139.38 134.90 131.05 KI04 127.86 125.74 124.88 121.18 118.45 114.08 106.67 98.2 KNO, 144.89 142.70 141.77 138.41 132.75 132.34 126.25 120.34 KMn04 134.8 132.7 131.9 — 126.5 — — 113 KOH 271.5 — 234 230 228 — 219 213 KRe04 128.20 126.03 125.12 121.31 118.49 114.49 106.40 97.40 l/3LaCl3 145.9 139.6 137.0 127.5 121.8 115.3 106.2 99.1 LiCl 114.97 113.09 112.34 109.35 107.27 104.60 100.06 95.81 LiC104 105.93 104.13 103.39 100.52 98.56 96.13 92.15 88.52 l/2MgCl2 129.34 125.55 124.15 118.25 114.49 109.99 103.03 97.05 NH4C1 149.6 147.5 146.7 143.9 141.21 138.25 133.22 128.69 NaCl 126.39 124.44 123.68 120.59 118.45 115.70 111.01 106.69 NaC104 117.42 115.58 114.82 111.70 109.54 106.91 102.35 98.38 Nal 126.88 125.30 124.19 121.19 119.18 116.64 112.73 108.73 NaOOCCH3 91.0 89.2 88.5 85.68 83.72 81.20 76.88 72.76 NaOH 247.7 245.5 244.6 240.7 237.9 — — — Na picrate 80.45 78.7 78.6 75.7 73.7 — 66.3 61.8 l/2Na2S04 129.8 125.68 124.09 117.09 112.38 106.73 97.70 89.94 l/2SrCl2 135.73 131.84 130.27 124.18 120.23 115.48 108.20 102.14 ZnS04 132.7 121.3 114.47 95.44 84.87 74.20 61.17 52.61 5-76
