1)Temp..

When u increase the temp the ions ocsilate faster than before so collision gets faster so that conductivity increases ....vice versa

2)Viscosity

Viscosity is like resistant for electons present in current so it resist electrons and flow will reduse by increasing viscosity of electrolyte

3)Solvation

Solvation means particles of solvent sticks to solute (in lyman language) so solvation plays important role in current flow

4)Size of ions

As mentioned abobe in flow of current electron collides with positive ions so if size of ions would be more than more collision will take plase so flow decreases.
