Answer:
as the concentration of the electrolyte decreases that is on dilution the molar conductivity of strong electrolyte marginally increases where as the molar conductivity of the weak electrolyte increases appreciable.the former is due to the increase in interionic distance on dilution which reduces the influence of cation and anion and vice versa and where as latter is due to the increase in the extent of ionization of weak electrolyte on dilution.

When the solution is dilute the number of ions available per unit volume reduces, resulting in the reduction of the conductivity. The molar conductivity of both weak and strong electrolytes increases with a decrease in concentration or dilution.
