Question

what is limiting molar conductivity

Urvashi Yadav · Accepted Answer

The molar conductivity at infinite dilution or approx zero concentration is considered at limiting molar conductivity.
The limiting molar conductivity of strong electrolyte can be determined by the extrapolate of molar conductivity and concentration curve but not possible for weak electrolyte by the same way.
In the case of strong electrolytes the value of molar conductance at infinite dilution is much less than unity.
Onsager was able to derive a theoretical expression to account for the empirical relation known as Kohlrausch's Law, for the molar conductivity, Λ_m.
$Lambda_m = Lambda_m^0-K sqrt{c}$
is known as the limiting molar conductivity, K is an empirical constant and c is the electrolyte concentration Limiting here means "at the limit of the infinite dilution").
