ANSWER
According to Kohlrausch law of independent migration of ions, the molar conductivity of an electrolyte at infinite dilution is equal to the sum of the contributions of the molar conductivities of its ions.
Hence,

The degree of dissociation is the ratio of the equivalent conductance at given concentration to the equivalent conductance at zero concentration. Hence,

Option A is correct.
