Answer the following in one or two sentences.
How is van’t Hoff factor related to degree of ionization?
The van’t Hoff factor is related to degree of ionization as follows:
i = 1 + α (n – 1)
or
α =
where, α = Degree of ionization/dissociation
i = van’t Hoff factor
n = Moles of ions obtained from ionization of 1 mole of electrolyte.
