Conductivity decreases with decrease in concentration as the number of ions per unit volume that carry the current in a solution decrease on dilution.

In dilution the number of ions in unit volume will be decreases. So the conductivity will also decreases.
Explanation:
- The conductivity of the given solution is "directly proportional to which the number of ions" present in the unit volume of the solution due to the current carried forwarded to the ion.
- So the dilution conductivity is decreased. The "degree to which the material conducts the electricity is refereed as conductivity. With dilution the specific conductivity is decreased and the equivalent molar conductivity will be increased.
