$\Lambda_m$ increases and $\kappa$ decreases

Vedclass · Answer

(C) $1$. Molar conductivity $(\Lambda_m)$ is defined as $\Lambda_m = \frac{\kappa}{C}$. Upon dilution, the concentration $(C)$ decreases, which leads to an increase in the volume containing $1 	ext{ mole}$ of electrolyte, thereby increasing $\Lambda_m$.$2$. Conductivity $(\kappa)$ is defined as the conductance of $1 	ext{ cm}^3$ of solution. Upon dilution, the number of ions per unit volume decreases, which results in a decrease in $\kappa$.$3$. Therefore, $\Lambda_m$ increases and $\kappa$ decreases.

Which of the following options is true when an electrolyte solution is diluted?
