Detailed Solution

$\begin{array}{l} \frac{α_{1}}{α_{2}} = \frac{\land_{1}}{\land_{2}} . . . . (1) \\ α = \sqrt{\frac{K_{a}}{C}} . . . . . . (2) \\ \frac{α_{1}}{α_{2}} = \sqrt{\frac{C_{2}}{C_{1}}} . . . . . (3) \end{array}$
Compairing 1 and 3
$\begin{array}{l} \frac{\land_{1}}{\land_{2}} = \sqrt{\frac{C_{2}}{C_{1}}} \\ \frac{4.95}{\land_{2}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.002}{0.2}} \\ \frac{4.95}{\land_{2}} = \frac{1}{10} \\ \land_{2} = 49.5 mho {cm}^{2} {mole}^{- 1} \end{array}$
