For a strong electrolyte, $\Lambda_{m}$ increases slowly with dilution and can be represented by the equation $\Lambda_{m} = \Lambda_{m}^{\circ} - Ac^{1/2}$. Molar conductivity values of a solution of strong electrolyte $AB$ at $18^{\circ} C$ are given below:

$c \ [mol \ L^{-1}]$	$0.04$	$0.09$	$0.16$	$0.25$
$\Lambda_{m} \ [S \ cm^2 \ mol^{-1}]$	$96.1$	$95.7$	$95.3$	$94.9$

The value of constant $A$ based on the above data [in $S \ cm^2 \ mol^{-1} / (mol \ L^{-1})^{1/2}$] is . . . . . . .

• A
  $2$
• B
  $4$
• C
  $6$
• D
