Correct answer: A. S1 is wrong and S2 is correct

Conductivity changes with the concentration of electrolyte. The number of ions per unit volume carrying the current decreases on dilution, so conductivity (K) always decreases with decrease in concentration.
Molar. Conductivity increases with dilution.

\mathop{{∧}_{\text{m}}}_{\left(\text{molar}\text{conductivity}\right)} = \dfrac{1000 \times \text{K}}{\text{C}}
