The correct equation for the degree of an associating solute, ‘n’ molecules of which undergoes association in solution, is
A. α = \(\frac{\mathrm{n}(\mathrm{i}-1)}{\mathrm{n}-1}\)
B. α2 = \(\frac{n(1-i)}{(n-1)}\)
C. α = \(\frac{\mathrm{n}(\mathrm{i}-1)}{1-\mathrm{n}}\)
D. α = \(\frac{\mathrm{n}(1-\mathrm{i})}{\mathrm{n}(1-\mathrm{i})}\)
