Solution
The correct option is B When weak acid is titrated against strong base, itn the begining the conductance increase marginally and after equivalence point it increase steeply.
When CH3COOH get neutralised when reaction with NaOH.
The neutralisation reaction is, CH3COOH+NaOH→CH3COONa+H2O
The formed salt will undergo hydrolysis reaction. CH3COO−+H2O⇌CH3COOH+HO−
Due to the common ion effect of CH3COONa, the dissociation of acetic acid is suppressed during titration.
Overall the conductivity increases, as the conducting power of sodium acetate is more than that of the feebly ionised acetic acid.
