Detailed Solution
Surfactant molecules (soap and detergents) associate to form colloids above certain concentrationcalled critical micelle concentration (CMC)CMC is 10-4M - 10-3M and a minimum of 100 molecules must associate.At CMC association occurs, no.of ions decreases and conductivity decreasesI & II are correct
