ChemistryElectrochemistryJEE Main
Options:
  • A increase in both i.e. number of ions and ionic mobility of ions
  • B increase in number of ions
  • C increase in ionic mobility of ions
  • D \(100 \%\) ionization of electrolyte at normal dilution

The correct answer is: increase in both i.e. number of ions and ionic mobility of ions
On dilution, the number of charge carriers per \(\mathrm{m}^3\) decreases but the volume increases. Consequently, the ionic mobility increases which increase equivalent conductance.
