Consider the statements S1 and S2: S1: Conductivity always increases with decrease in the concentration of electrolyte. S2: Molar conductivity always increases with decrease in the concentration of electrolyte. The correct option among the following is:

S_(1)to canductivity increases on decreasing concentration of electrolyte S_(2)to molar conductivity increases on decreasing concentration of electrolyte.

Assertion:Molar conductivity increases with decrease in concentration. Reason:Conductivity always decrease with decrease in concentration.

Statement-1: Conductivity always decreases with decrease in concentration of both the weak and strong electrolytes. Statement-2: No. of ions per unit volume linearly decreases in both electrolytes.

Statement-1: Molar conductivity increases with decrease in concentration for weak electrolytes. Statement-2: No. of ions per unit volume decreases due to dilution.

Above plot represents the variation of molar conductance against sqrtC (where C = molar concentration of the electrolyte) . Select the correct option among following .
