BaCl2 + 2N aOH → Ba(OH)2 + 2N aCl
∵ λom Ba(OH)2 = λom BaCl2 + λom N aOH − 2λom N aCl

Copper lies below hydrogen in electrochemical series so it cannot displace H2 from dilute acids. Hence it is not easily corroded
in acidic solutions. Further, corrosion is a spontaneous process for which free energy change must be negative.
(105) Assertion: Electrical conductivity of copper increases with increase in temperature

Reason: The electrical conductivity of metals is due to motion of electrons. [AIIMS 1998]
(D) If the Assertion is incorrect but the Reason is correct.
Electrical conductivity of every metal decreases with increase in temperature due to increase in molecular motion which
increases resistance.

When an electric current is passed through a cell having an electrolyte, the positive ions move towards the cathode and the

Galvanised iron does not rust easily because zinc (which is present in the form of coating) has more negative electrode potential
(− 0.76 V ) than iron (− 0.41 V ) i.e., Zn is less reactive than F e.
