define degree of dissociation. derive Ostwald's dilution law for the CH_{3}COOH

Answer:

Ostwald’s dilution law describes the dissociation constant of the weak electrolyte with the degree of dissociation (α) and the concentration of the weak electrolyte.

A binary electrolyte AB which dissociates into A+ and B– ions.

AB ⇌ A+ + B–

(i) For very weak electrolytes, since α <<< 1, (1 – α) = 1

∴ K=Cα2

 

α=KC−−√

 

(ii) Concentration of any ion = Cα = √CK = √K/V

K =dissociation constant of a weak acid

α = degree of dissociation.

Ostwald’s dilution law states that only at infinite dilution the weak electrolyte undergoes complete ionization.
