JEE Mains · Chemistry · STD 12 - 2. Electrochemistry

Consider the statements \(S_1\) and \(S_2\):
\(S_1\): Conductivity always increases with decrease in the concentration of electrolyte.
\(S_2\): Molar conductivity always increases with decrease in the concentration of electrolyte.
The correct option among the following is

  1. A \(S_1\) is wrong and \(S_2\) is correct
  2. B Both \(S_1\) and \(S_2\) are wrong
  3. C \(S_1\) is correct and \(S_2\) is wrong
  4. D Both \(S_1\) and \(S_2\) are correct
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(S_1\) is wrong and \(S_2\) is correct

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

We know that \(\lambda _m=\frac {K}{C}\) Here \(\lambda _m\,=\) molar conductivity \(K=\) conductivity \(C\,=\) concentration when concentration increase conductivity always increases. The molar conductivity always increase wih the decrease in the concentration
