An aqueous solution of X is added slowly to an aqueous solution of Y as shown in List I. The variation in conductivity of these reactions is given in List II. Match List I with List II and select the correct using the code given below the lists:
| List I | List II |
| (P) | (1) Conductivity decreases and then increases |
| (Q) | (2) Conductivity decreases and then does not change much |
| (R) | (3) Conductivity increases and then does not change much |
| (S) | (4) Conductivity does not change much and then increase |

Checking easiest options Q and R
(Q) KI + AgNO3 → AgI (s) + KNO3
X Y
On adding KI to AgNO3 solution, Ag+ is replaced by K+ as Ag+ and K+ have approximately same conductivity so conductivity does not change much upto equivalence point after which on adding KI conductivity increases.
(R) CH3COOH + KOH → CH3COOK + H2O
X Y
On adding CH3COOH to KOH solution OH¯ is replaced by CH3COO¯ so conductivity decreases upto equivalence point after which on adding CH3COOH further conductivity does not change much as CH3COOH is a weak acid (also in the presence of common ion dissociation of CH3COOH will be quite lesser)
