An increase in equivalent conductance of a strong electrolyte with dilution is mainly due to:

1. increase in ionic mobility of ions
2. 100% ionisation of electrolyte at normal dilution
3. increase in both i.e. number of ions and ionic mobility of ions
4. increase in number of ions

Correct answer: increase in ionic mobility of ions

Solution

The equivalent conductance of a strong electrolyte increases with dilution because the ions experience less interionic attraction, leading to an increase in their mobility.
