Question
The colligative properties of electrolytes require a slightly different approach than the one used for the colligative properties of non$-$electrolytes. The electrolytes dissociate into ions in solution. It is the number of solute particles that determines the colligative properties of a solution. The electron solutions, therefore, show abnormal colligative properties. To account for this effect we define a quantity called the van't Hoft factor, given
by
$i=\frac{\text { Actual number of particles in solution a fter dissociation }}{\text { Number of formula units initially dissolved in solution }}$
$i=1 ($for non$-$electrolytes$);$
$i>1 ($for electrolytes, undergoing dissociation$)$
$i<1 ($ for solutes, undergoing association$).$
$i. 0.1 M K _4\left[ Fe ( CN )_6\right]$ is $60 \%$ ionized. What will be its van't Hoff factor?
$ii.$ When a solution of benzoic acid dissolved in benzene such that it undergoes in molecular association and its molar mass approaches $244.$ In which form Benzoic molecules will exist?
$iii.$ How does van't Hoff factor $i$ and degree of association a are related if benzoic acid undergoes dimerisation in benzene solution? $\left( i =1 \frac{-\alpha}{2}\right.$ or $\left.i =1+\alpha\right)(2)$
OR
$iii.$ What do you mean by colligative properties of solutions?

Answer

$i.$ We know, $x=\frac{i-1}{n-1}$
Where, $n =5$ and $x =0.6\left(\because 60 \%=\frac{60}{100}=0.6\right.$ ionized $)$
So, $0.6=\frac{i-1}{5-1}$
$0.6 \times 4= i -1$
$2.4= i -1$
$2.4+1= i$
$i=3.4$
$ii.$ Benzoic molecules exist as a dimer.
$iii. i=1 \frac{-\alpha}{2}$

The unique behaviour of $Cu ,$ having a positive $E ^{\circ}$ accounts for its inability to liberate $H _2$ from acids. Only oxidising acids $($nitric and hot concentrated sulphuric$)$ react with $Cu ,$ the acids being reduced. The stability of the half $-$ filled $d$ sub $-$ shell in $Mn ^{2+}$ and the completely filled $d ^{10}$ configuration in $Zn ^{2+}$ are related to their $E ^{\circ}$ values, whereas $E ^{\circ}$ for $Ni$ is related to the highest negative $\Delta_{h y d} H ^{\circ}$. An examination of the $E{\left(M^{3+} / M^{2+}\right)}^o$ values the low value for $Sc$ reflects the stability of $Sc ^{3+}$ which has a noble gas configuration. The comparatively high value for $Mn$ shows that $Mn ^{2+}\left( d ^5\right)$ is particularly stable, whereas a comparatively low value for $Fe$ shows the extra stability of $Fe ^{3+}\left( d ^5\right)$. The comparatively low value for $V$ is related to the stability of $V ^{2+} \ ($half $-$ filled $t _{2 g}$ level$)$.
