The correct order of equivalent conductance at infinite dilution of $LiCl, NaCl $ and $KCl $ is
- LiCl > NaCl > KCl
- KCl > NaCl > LiCl
- NaCl > KCl > LiCl
- LiCl > KCl > NaCl
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
Cations have same charge but different size. Smaller cations are more heavily hydrated in aqueous solution giving larger hydrated radius and thus smaller ionic speeds and equivalent conductance.
$\Rightarrow \, \, \, $ Equivalent conductance : KCl > NaCl > LiCl
Top Questions on Conductance
Given below are two statements:
Statement I: Mohr's salt is composed of only three types of ions—ferrous, ammonium, and sulphate.
Statement II: If the molar conductance at infinite dilution of ferrous, ammonium, and sulphate ions are $ x_1 $, $ x_2 $, and $ x_3 $ $ \text{S cm}^2 \, \text{mol}^{-1} $, respectively, then the molar conductance for Mohr's salt solution at infinite dilution would be given by $ x_1 + x_2 + 2x_3 $.- JEE Main - 2025

The center of a disk of radius $ r $ and mass $ m $ is attached to a spring of spring constant $ k $, inside a ring of radius $ R>r $ as shown in the figure. The other end of the spring is attached on the periphery of the ring. Both the ring and the disk are in the same vertical plane. The disk can only roll along the inside periphery of the ring, without slipping. The spring can only be stretched or compressed along the periphery of the ring, following Hooke’s law. In equilibrium, the disk is at the bottom of the ring. Assuming small displacement of the disc, the time period of oscillation of center of mass of the disk is written as $ T = \frac{2\pi}{\omega} $. The correct expression for $ \omega $ is ( $ g $ is the acceleration due to gravity):

Conductance
What is conductance?
Conductance is an expression of the ease with which electric current flows through materials like metals and nonmetals. In equations, an uppercase letter G symbolizes conductance. The standard unit of conductance is siemens (S), formerly known as mho.
What is conductance in electricity?
Conductance in electricity is considered the opposite of resistance (R). Resistance is essentially the amount of friction a component presents to the flow of current.
The conductivity of electrolytic solutions is governed by the following factors:
- Interionic attraction
- Solvation of ions
- The viscosity of the solvent
- Temperature
