Question

Out of the following pairs, predict with reason which pair will allow greater conduction of electricity:
(i) Silver wire at 30°C or silver wire at 60°C.
(ii) 0.1 M \(CH_3\)COOH solution or 1 M \(CH_3\)COOH solution.
(iii) KCl solution at 20°C or KCl solution at 50°C.
(i) Silver wire at 30°C because as temperature decreases, resistance decreases so conduction increases.
(ii) 0.1 M \(CH_3\)COOH, because on dilution degree of ionization increases hence conduction increases.
(iii) KCl solution at 50°C, because at high temperature mobility of ions increases and hence conductance increases.
