Would not the conductivity of the solution INCREASE...?
Explanation:
We take a generic acid....and to some extent it undergoes protonolysis with water....and when we do this reaction we always add acid to water, and never the reverse....why so?
For the LOWER hydrogen halides, this equilibrium lies strongly to the RIGHT as we face the page. But even were we to consider the weak acid,
