Solution

The correct option is B velocity of $H^{\oplus}$ ions is more than that of $N a^{\oplus}$ ions
Because of the lower mass of H, the velocity of $H^{\oplus}$ ions is more than that of $N a^{\oplus}$ ions. Smaller the cation higher is the molar conductivity. So, molar conductivity of HCl is greater than that of NaCl at a particular temperature.
