MHT CET Chemistry question

The conductivity of an electrolytic solution decreases on dilution due to [MHTCET 2019]

(A)decrease in number of ions per unit volumeCorrect
(B)increase in ionic mobility of ions
(C)increase in percentage ionization
(D)increase in number of ions per unit volume

Answer: (A)

Solution

Conductivity is the conductance of a unit volume; on dilution the number of ions per unit volume decreases, so conductivity falls (ionic mobility is essentially
