Conductivity. Conductivity is the measure of the ease at which an electric charge or heat can pass through a material. A conductor is a material which gives very little resistance to the flow of an electric current or thermal energy. Materials are classified as metals, semiconductors, and insulators.


resistivity has the SI unit "ohm metre" (Ω⋅m). ... Conductivity, σ, is defined as the inverse of resistivity: Conductivity has SI units of "siemens per metre" (S/m).

It is a very interesting question.

Definition:
         Conductivity defines a material's ability to conduct electricity. Electric current can flow easily through a material with high conductivity.Materials are classified as metals, semiconductors, and insulators.

SI Unit: 
      The SI unit of conductivity is siemens per meter (S/m) and is often represented using the Greek letter σ.

Hope this will help you.
