In a conductometric titration, small volume of titrant of higher concentration is added stepwise to a larger volume of titrate of much lower concentration, and the conductance is measured after each addition.
The limiting ionic conductivity () values (in ) for different ions in aqueous solutions are given below:
Ions
6.27.45.035.07.27.616.019.94.1

For different combinations of titrates and titrants given in List-I, the graphs of 'conductance' versus 'volume of titrant' are given in List-II.

Match each entry in List-I with the appropriate entry in List-II and choose the correct option.

(P) Titrate: KCl; Titrant:
(Q) Titrate: ; Titrant: KCl
(R) Titrate: NaOH; Titrant: HCl
(S) Titrate: NaOH; Titrant:

Answer: (C)

Solution

(P) Adding to KCl precipitates AgCl, replacing (7.6) with (7.2), so conductance decreases slightly until equivalence, then increases (graph 3). (Q) Adding KCl to precipitates AgCl, replacing (6.2) with (7.4), so conductance increases throughout (graph 4). (R) Adding HCl to NaOH replaces (19.9) with (7.6), so conductance decreases until equivalence, then increases (graph 2). (S) Adding to NaOH replaces (19.9) with (4.1), so conductance decreases; after equivalence, added weak acid remains largely undissociated, so conductance stays constant (graph 5).
