At 25 °C molar conductance of 0.1 molar aqueous solution of ammonium hydroxide is 9.54 Ω-1 cm2 mol-1 and at infinite dilution its molar conductance is 238 Ω-1 cm2 mol-1. The degree of ionisation of ammonium hydroxide at the same concentration and temperature is :
1. | 2.080 % | 2. | 20.800 % |
3. | 4.008 % | 4. | 40.800 % |
When a copper wire is immersed in a solution of AgNO3, the colour of the solution becomes blue because copper:
1. Forms a soluble complex with \(AgNO_3\)
2. Is oxidised to \(Cu^{2+}\)
3. Is reduced to \(Cu^{2-}\)
4. Splits up into atomic form and dissolves
The specific conductance of a 0.1 M KCl solution at 23 °C is 0.012 Ω–1 cm–1. The resistance of cells containing the solution at the same temperature was found to be 55 Ω. The cell constant will be:

2. Cr
3. Fe2+
4. H2
The Zn acts as sacrificial or cathodic protection to prevent rusting of iron because:
1. of Zn < of Fe
2. of Zn > of Fe
3. of Zn = of fe
4. Zn is cheaper than iron
