Philoid · Accepted Answer

Λ_mfor weak electrolytes shows a sharp increase when the electrolytic solution is diluted as degree of dissociation and the number of ions in total volume of solution that contains 1 mol of electrolyte increases with dilution of solution.

Where, C= Concentration

Hence, Λ_mfor weak electrolytes shows a sharp increase when the electrolytic solution is diluted because degree of dissociation increases with dilution of solution.
