State Kohlrausch’s law of independent migration of ions.

Answer:

Kohlrausch examined Ëm° values for a number of strong electrolytes and observed certain regularities. He noted that the difference in Ëm° of the electrolytes NaX and KX for any X is nearly constant. For example
at 298 K:

Ëm°(KCl) – Ëm° (NaCl)= Ëm°(KBr) – Ëm°(NaBr)
= Ëm°(KI) – Ëm° (NaI) ≃ 23.4 S cm2 mol–1

and similarly it was found that
Ëm°(NaBr)– Ëm°(NaCl)= Ëm°(KBr) – Ëm°(KCl) ≃ 1.8 S cm2 mol–1

On the basis of the above observations he enunciated Kohlrausch

How is molar conductivity related to the degree of dissociation?

Answer:
At any concentration c, if a is the degree of dissociation 
then it can be approximated to the ratio of molar conductivity Ëm at the concentration c to limiting molar conductivity, Ëm°. Thus we have

Λ
m and degree of dissociation (a) are related by the equation
α = AcmAm

How does a fuel cell operate?

Answer:

Galvanic cells that are designed to convert
the energy of combustion of fuels like hydrogen, methane, methanol, etc. directly into electrical energy are called fuel cells


Oxidation/combustion takes place at anode with the liberation of energy.

The electrode
reactions are given below:
Cathode: O2(g) + 2H2O(l) + 4e- -->4OH-(aq)
Anode: 2H2 (g) + 4OH-(aq) ---> 4H2O(l) + 4e-

Overall reaction being:
2H2(g) + O2(g) ---> 2 H2O(l )
