a

\large \alpha \; = \;\frac{{i - 1}}{{\left( {x + y + 1} \right)}}

b

\large \alpha \; = \;\frac{{i - 1}}{{\left( {x + y - 1} \right)}}

c

\large \alpha \; = \;\frac{{\left( {x + y - 1} \right)}}{{i - 1}}

Detailed Solution

\large A_xB_y\rightarrow xA^{+y}+yB^{-x}

No.of particles in aq. sol. =(x+y)

Let \large \alpha be degree of ionization of the electrolyte

                           \large A_xB_y\rightarrow xA^{+y}+yB^{-x}     

Before ionization;        1                 0                  0

After ionization;         1-\large \alpha             x\large \alpha               y\large \alpha

total no.of particles After ionization =1-\large \alpha+\large \alpha(x+y)

\large Van't Hoff factor (i) = \frac{observed\;colligative\;property}{normal\;colligative\;property}

\large i=\frac{1-\alpha +\alpha (x+y)}{1}

i = 1+\large \alpha[(x+y)-1]

\large \alpha =\frac{i-1}{(x+y)-1}
