Unitary equivalences for essential extensions of $C^*$-algebras

Let $A$ be a unital separable \CA and $B=C\otimes {\cal K},$ where $C$ is a unital \CA. Let $\tau: A\to M(B)/B$ be a weakly unital full essential extensions of $A$ by $B.$ We show that there is a bijection between a quotient group of $K_0(B)$ onto the set of strong unitary equivalence classes of weakly unital full essential extensions $\sigma$ such that $[\sigma]=[\tau]$ in $KK^1(A, B).$ Consequently, when this group is zero, unitarily equivalent full essential extensions are strongly unitarily equivalent. When $B$ is a non-unital but $\sigma$-unital simple \CA with continuous scale, we also study the problem when two approximately unitarily equivalent essential extensions are strongly approximately unitarily equivalent. A group is used to compute the strongly approximate unitary equivalence classes in the same approximate unitary equivalent class of essential
