Q. The conductivity of an electrolytic solution decreases on dilution due to

MHT CETMHT CET 2019

Solution:

Conductivity always decreases with decrease in concentration (i.e. with dilution) of both the strong and weak electrolytes. This is due to the fact that the number of ions that carry current in a volume of solution always decreases with decrease in concentration.
