The assertion that the degree of association of a weak electrolyte in a solution is greater than that of a strong electrolyte is correct. Weak electrolytes are partially ionised in a solution, and thus, they tend to associate more than the strong electrolytes, which are completely ionised in a solution. However, the reasoning that weak electrolytes do not ionise completely in a solution, whereas strong electrolytes ionise completely is incorrect. Weak electrolytes partially ionised in a solution, but they still ionise to some extent, whereas strong electrolytes completely ionise in a solution. Therefore, option (c) is the correct answer.
