An increase in equivalent conductance of a strong electrolyte with dilution is mainly due to
- Aincrease in ionic mobility of ions
- B100% ionisation of electrolyte at normal dilution
- Cincrease in both i.e., number of ions and ionic mobility of ions
- Dincrease in number of ions.

Correct answer: A
Dilution of strong electrolytes increases ionisation, hence ionic mobility of ions increases which in turn increases equivalent conductance of the solution.
