Given below are two statements
Assertion (A): Conductivity of an electrolyte decreases on dilution
Reason (R): On dilution number of ions per unit volume increases
The correct answer is
- A Both (A) and (R) are correct and (R) is the correct explanation of \((A)\)
- B Both (A) and (R) are correct and (R) is not the correct explanation of \((A)\)
- C (A) is correct but (R) is not correct
- D (A) is not correct but (R) is correct
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) (A) is correct but (R) is not correct
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Conductivity \((K)=\) Number of ions dissolved in unit volume of the solution. Thus, upon dilution, the number of ions per unit volume decreases because of which conductivity decreases. Thus, Assertion (A) is correct but Reason (R) is not correct.
