  • $\begingroup$ interestingly the plot in this question doesn't even go out that far in concentration $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ Presumably the concentration in the graph is percent by weight. If so, then it's interesting to note that an equimolar mixture of $\ce{H2O}$ and $\ce{H2SO4}$ represents a 84.5 wt% solution, whereas a 1:2 molar mixture represents a 91.6 wt% solution. I'll be surprised if this is purely coincidental. $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ Ať 85%, the ion pairs stop being solvated by water and start being solvated by H2SO4. Solvation means ion separation and conductivity increase. $\endgroup$
