Why on dilution the m Λm of \[\ce{CH3COOH}\] increases very fast, while that of \[\ce{CH3COONa}\] increases gradually?

उत्तर
In the case of \[\ce{CH3COOH}\], which is a weak electrolyte, the number of ions increase on dilution due to an increase in degree of dissociation.
\[\ce{CH3COOH + H2O ⇌ CH3COO^{-} (aq) + H3O^{+}}\]
In the case of strong electrolyte such as \[\ce{CH3COONa}\], the number of ions remains the same but the interionic attraction decreases.
