Answer #1

The number of ions per unit volume carrying the current decreases on dilution so coundictivity always decreases with decrease in concentration.

as we dilute the soltion the ions concentration decreases due to increase i the volume of the solvent. therefore conductivity decreases.

however molar conductance of the solution increases as it is inversely proportional to M.

molar conductance = K/M (here M is the molarity of the solution.)

cucl2 solution before dilution will have higher conductivity as compared to cucl2 after dilution.
