Question

The molar conductivity of a solution of a weak acid HX (0.01 M) is 10 times smaller than the molar conductivity of a solution of a weak acid HY (0.10 M). If λ\(^0_{x-}\) ≈ λ\(^0_{y-}\) the difference in their pK_a values, pK_a (HX) - pK_a (HY), is (consider degree of ionization of both acids to be << 1)

Answer 1

PKa₁ - PKa₂ = 3
