Give a reason for the following :
Conductivity of dilute hydrochloric acid is greater than that of acetic acid.

Explanation

Conductivity of dilute hydrochloric acid is greater than that of acetic acid because hydrochloric acid is a strong acid and it dissociates completely in aqueous solution to form `H^(+)` and `Cl^(-)` ions (a higher concentration of ions). Acetic acid, on the other hand, is a weak acid and it partially dissociates forming `H^(+)` and `CH_3COO^(-)` ions (concentration of ions is low).
