Variation of ConductivityElectrochemistry

Why does the molar conductivity (Λm\Lambda_m) of a strong electrolyte like CH3COONaCH_3COONa increase only gradually upon dilution?

Expert Answer

In strong electrolytes, the increase is small because it is due only to a decrease in interionic attractions as the ions move further apart.
