Question

What is ionic conductivity? It depends on which factor?

✓

Answer

→ "The conductance of electricity by ions present in the solutions is called electrolytic or ionic conductance"
→ When electrolytes are dissolved in water, they furnish their own ions in the solution hence its conductivity also increases.
→The conductivity of electrolytic (ionic) solution depends on:
(i) The nature of the electrolyte added
(ii) The size of the ions produced and their solvation
(iii) The nature of the solvent and its viscosity
(iv) Concentration of the electrolyte
(v) Temperature (it increases with the increase of temperature)
