Correct answer: A
-
For electrolytes, the variation of molar conductivity with concentration is understood using Kohlrausch-type behavior.
-
Since the graph is asked between and :
- As concentration increases, interionic interactions increase.
- Therefore molar conductivity decreases.
- At , (limiting molar conductivity).
-
For a strong electrolyte, the relation is approximately where is a constant.
-
This equation represents a straight line with:
- intercept at
- negative slope
-
Hence the correct graph must be a straight line decreasing linearly with .
-
Among the given options, this corresponds to Option A.
Therefore, the correct answer is:
