If the molar conductance values of $\mathrm{Ca}^{2+}$ and $\mathrm{Cl}^{-}$ at infinite dilution are respectively $118.88 \times 10^{-4}$ $\mathrm{m}^{2} \mathrm{mh} \mathrm{mol}^{-1}$ and $77.33 \times 10^{-4} \mathrm{~m}^{2} \mathrm{mho} \mathrm{mol}^{-1}$ then that of $\mathrm{CaCl}_{2}$ is (in $\mathrm{m}^{2} \mathrm{mhomol}^{-1}$)

The correct answer is: $273.54 \times 10^{-4}$
$\begin{aligned} \text { Molar conductance of } \mathrm{CaCl}_{2} & \\ &=\text { Molar conductance of } \mathrm{Ca}^{2++}+2 \times(\text { molar }\\ &\left.\text { conductance of } \mathrm{Cl}^{-}\right) \\ &=118.88 \times 10^{-4}+2\left(77.33 \times 10^{-4}\right) \\ &=273.54 \times 10^{-4} \mathrm{~m}^{2} \text { mhomol }^{-1} \end{aligned}$
