Why acetic has less conductivity than Hcl
Illustrate the reason, why acetic has less conductivity than Hcl?
Expert
Acetic acid has less conductivity, because Acetic ionizes less in solution. HCl separates nearly complete in solution to form the ions H+ and Cl-. Acetic acid only moderately ionizes into H+ and CH3COO- with lots of it remaining as complete CH3COOH molecules. It is concentration of ions in a solution that determines its conductivity. An electric current passes by solution with movement of these ions. The range to which any partly ionized substance really ionizes can be stated as its pKa value.
The second law states that dS ≥ (dQ/T), where dS = dQ/T for a reversible process and dS > dQ/T for an irreversible process. a. Show that since dW12 = -dW21 (dWreverse = -dWforward) for a r

A student was analyzing an unknown containing only Group IV cations. When the unknown was treated with 3M (NH4)2CO3 solution, a white precipitate formed. Because the acetic acid bottle was empty, the student used 6M HCl to dissolve the precipitate. Following the procedure of this experiment, the stu
The French chemist Francois Marie Raoult (1886) carried out a series of experiments to study the vapour pressure of a number of binary solutions. On the basis of the results of the experiments, he proposed a generalization called Raoult's law which states that, <
