AI Generated Solution

To solve the question regarding the statements S1 and S2 about conductivity and molar conductivity, we will analyze each statement step by step. ### Step 1: Analyze Statement S1 **Statement S1:** "Conductivity always increases with decrease in the concentration of electrolyte." - **Understanding Conductivity:** Conductivity (K) of an electrolyte solution is defined as the ability of the solution to conduct electricity, which depends on the concentration of ions present in the solution. - **Effect of Decreasing Concentration:** When the concentration of an electrolyte decreases, the number of ions available to conduct electricity also decreases. Therefore, the conductivity of the solution will decrease, not increase. ...
