For a weak electrolyte at concentration c, the degree of dissociation α can be approximated as:
Aα = Λ°_m / Λ_m
Bα = Λ_m × Λ°_m
Cα = Λ_m − Λ°_m
Dα = Λ_m / Λ°_m
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. α = Λ_m / Λ°_m
**α = Λ_m / Λ°_m**.
At infinite dilution α → 1 and Λ_m → Λ°_m.
**The acid dissociation constant follows:** K_a = cα²/(1−α).
