For a strong electrolyte, molar conductivity increases slowly with dilution and can be represented by the equation:
Lambda_m = Lambda_m(0) − A × square root of c
Molar conductivity values of solutions of strong electrolyte AB at 18 degree Celsius are given below:
Concentration (mol L-1): 0.04 , 0.09 , 0.16 , 0.25
Molar conductivity (S cm2 mol-1): 96.1 , 95.7 , 95.3 , 94.9
The value of constant A based on the above data [in S cm2 mol-1 per (mol L-1)1/2] is:
