◻molar conductivity vary with concentration for weak electrolyte⬇⬇⬇⬇

the weak electrolytes dissociate to a much lesser extent as compared to strong electrolytes. Therefore, the molar conductivity is low as compared to strong electrolytes.

However, the variation of /\m with C^½ is very large and so much, so that we cannot obtain molar conductance at infinite dilution (/\m°) by extrapolation of /\m versus C^½ point.

◻ conductance behaviour of weak electrolytes.⬇⬇⬇⬇⬇⬇⬇

the number of Ions furnished by an electrolyte in solution depends upon the degree of dissociation with dilution. With the increase in dilution, the degree of dissociation increase and as a result molar conductance increase. The limiting value of molar conductance (/\m) corresponds to degree of dissociation equal to I. the whole of the the electrolyte dissociates.

Thus the degree of dissociation can be calculated at any concentration.

a =  \: /| {m}^{c} / \: /| {m}^{o} \:

where "a" is the degree of dissociation,

(/\m^c)— is the molar conductance at concentration,

(/\m°)— is the molar conductance at infinite dilution.

Hope it helps you...

Thank you

There is sharp increase in the number of ions in the solution. Hence, the molar conductivity of a weak electrolyte rises steeply at low concentration. ... This decrease is due to the increase in interionic attractions as a result of greater numbr of ions per unit volume.
