2. Answer the following in one or two sentences

vi. How is van’t Hoff factor related to degree of ionization?

Answer:-

The van’t Hoff factor is related to the degree of ionization as follows:

i = 1 + α(n – 1)

or

α = (i – 1) / (n – 1)

where,

α = Degree of ionization/dissociation

i = van’t Hoff factor

n = Moles of ions obtained from ionization of 1 mole of electrolyte.
