JEE Main 2023 (Online) 24th January Evening Shift Chemistry - Electrochemistry Question 60 English Explanation
(A) →\rightarrow (B) Free H+\mathrm{H}^{+} ions are replaced by Na⊕\mathrm{Na}^{\oplus} which decreases conductance.

(B) →\rightarrow (C) Un-dissociated benzoic acid reacts with NaOH\mathrm{NaOH} and forms salt which increases ions & conductance increases.

(C) →\rightarrow (D) After equivalence point at (3), NaOH\mathrm{NaOH} added further increases Na⊕&OH⊙\mathrm{Na}^{\oplus} \& \mathrm{OH}^{\odot} ions which further increases the conductance.
