The correct answer is:
$\wedge_{\mathrm{NaCl}}^{\circ}$
$$
\begin{aligned}
& \lambda_{\mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{COONa}}^0=\lambda_{\mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{COO}^{-}}^0+\lambda_{\mathrm{Na}^{+}}^0 \\
& \lambda_{\mathrm{HCl}}^0=\lambda_{\mathrm{H}^{+}}^0+\lambda_{\mathrm{C}}^0 \cdots \cdots \cdots \cdots \cdot \\
& \lambda_{\mathrm{NaCl}}^0=\lambda_{\mathrm{Na}}^0+\lambda_{\mathrm{Cl}}^0 \cdots \cdots \cdots \cdots \\
& \lambda_{\mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{COOH}}^0=(1)+(2)-(3)
\end{aligned}
