To determine the factors that affect the conductivity of an electrolytic solution, we can analyze the given options step by step. ### Step 1: Understanding Conductivity Conductivity (κ) of an electrolytic solution is defined as the ability of the solution to conduct electric current. It is influenced by several factors, including the nature of the electrolyte, concentration of the electrolyte, and the physical arrangement of the electrodes. ### Step 2: Analyzing the Options 1. **Nature of Electrolyte (Option A)**: - The type of electrolyte (strong or weak) affects conductivity. Strong electrolytes dissociate completely in solution, leading to higher conductivity, while weak electrolytes do not dissociate completely, resulting in lower conductivity. ...
