The correct answer is: $390.5 \mathrm{~S} \mathrm{~cm}^2 \mathrm{~mol}^{-1}$
$$
\begin{aligned}
& \text { } \mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{COONa}+\mathrm{HCl} \longrightarrow \mathrm{NaCl}+\mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{COOH} \\
& 91+425.9=126.4+x \\
& \therefore \quad x=516.9-126.4 \\
& =390.5 \mathrm{~S} \mathrm{~cm}{ }^2 \mathrm{~mol}^{-1} \\
&
\end{aligned}
$$
