Which of the following plots will be obtained for a conductometric titration of strong acid against a weak base?

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

Initially, the solution contains highly mobile H⁺ ions, so conductance is high.

On adding the weak base, H⁺ ions are neutralized, causing conductance to decrease.

At the equivalence point, the concentration of H⁺ becomes minimum, so conductance is minimum.

After the equivalence point, excess weak base is only slightly ionized.

Therefore, conductance increases slowly beyond the endpoint.

Hence, the conductance vs. volume graph is Option (C).
