Given below are two statements: Statement I: For KI , molar conductivity increases steeply with dilution. Statement II: For carbonic acid, molar conductivity increases slowly with dilution. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below

Step-by-step solution

For strong electrolytes, ∧ m increases slowly with dilution and can be represented by the equation: ∧ m = ∧ m o - A c 1 2 It can be seen that if we plot ∧ m against c 1 2 , We obtain a straight line with intercept equal to ∧ m and slope equal to ' - A '. The value of the constant ' A ' for a given solvent and temperature depends on the type of electrolyte. KI is a strong electrolyte. Weak electrolytes like carbonic acid and have lower degree of dissociation at higher concentrations and hence for such electrolytes,
