Explain why the conductivity of 0.150 M KBr (aq) is about twice that of 0.075 M

Question

Explain why the conductivity of 0.150 M KBr (aq) is about twice that of 0.075 M KBr(aq).

Is my answer correct?? Thanks!!

Map this question was written by Gen Chem Lab Coordinator at Western Washington University sapling leaming Explain why the conducit M KBr(aq) is abou twice that of 0,075 M KBr(ag) The nature of the ions in solution for 0.150 M KBr are different than those in the 0.075 M KBr and the ions in the 0.150 M KBr carry the charge better. The 0.150 M KBr consists of K22 and Br2 ions in solution whereas the 0.075 M KBr only has K and Br ions in solution. There are twice as many ions in solution in 0.150 M KBr than there are in 0.075 Since the 0.150 M KBr is twice as concetrated as 0.075 M KBr, each ion is allowed to carry twice as much electrical charge in solution. KBr is a weak electrolyte and ionizes twice as much in the 0.150 M KBr as it does in the 0.075 M KBr.

Explanation / Answer

concentration increases conductivity increases in the certain stage.

Since the 0.15M KBr is twice as concentrated as 0.075M Kbr each ion is allowed to carry twice as much electrical charge in solution.

But no increases the ions
