The degree of dissociation in a weak electrolyte increase

A

On increasing Dilution

B

On increasing pressure

C

On decreasing

D

None of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

In weak electrolyte the degree of dissociation is very small. So it increases with increasing dilution. (ostwald's law).
