Question
Assertion: Λm for weak electrolytes shows a sharp increase when the electrolytic solution is diluted.
Reason: For weak electrolytes degree of dissociation increases with dilution of solution.
Options
Both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of assertion.
Both assertion and reason are true and the reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.

Solution
Both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of assertion.
Explanation:
Weak electrolytes dissociate partially in concentrated solution. On dilution, their degree of dissociation increases hence their Am increases sharply.
