Why on dilution the Am of CH3COOH increases drastically, while that of CH4COONa increases gradually?
In the case of CH3COOH, which is a weak electrolyte, the number of ions increase on dilution due to an increase in degree of dissociation.
In the case of strong electrolyte such as CH3COONa, the number of ions remains the same but the interionic attraction decreases.
