The variation of the molar conductivity with concentration of an electrolyte \((X)\) in aqueous solution is shown in the given figure.




The electrolyte ' X ' is:

  1. A \(\mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{COOH}\)
  2. B NaCl
  3. C \(\mathrm{HNO}_3\)
  4. D KCl
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{COOH}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The graph shows the variation of molar conductivity (\(\lambda_m\)) with the square root of concentration (\(\sqrt{c}\)). For strong electrolytes like \(\text{NaCl}\), \(\text{KCl}\), and \(\text{HNO}_3\), the molar conductivity increases linearly with decreasing concentration…
