Assertion : `Lamda_(m)` for weak electrolytes shows a sharp increase when the electrolytic solution is diluted.
Reason: For weak electrolytes degree of dissociation increases with dilution of solution.

A

Both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of assertion.

B

Both assertion and reason are true and the reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.

C

Assertion is true but the reason is false.

D

Both assertion and reason are false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
For weak electrolyte `Lamda_(m)` increases steeply on dilution due to increase in the number of ions (or the degree of dissociation).
