Question

What is molar conductivity?
​

Answer 1

Answer:

The molar conductivity of an electrolyte solution is defined as its conductivity divided by its molar concentration. {\displaystyle \Lambda _{\text{m}}={\frac {\kappa }{c}}, } where: κ is the measured conductivity, c is the molar concentration of the electrolyte.

Answer 2

Answer:

The molar conductivity of an electrolyte solution is defined as its conductivity divided by its molar concentration.[1][2]

{\displaystyle \Lambda _{\text{m}}={\frac {\kappa }{c}},}

where:

κ is the measured conductivity (formerly known as specific conductance),[3]c is the molar concentration of the electrolyte.

The SI unit of molar conductivity is Siemens metre-squared per mole (S m2 mol−1).[2] However, values are often quoted in S cm2 mol−1.[4] In these last units, the value of {\displaystyle \Lambda _{\text{m}}} may be understood as the conductance of a volume of solution between parallel plate

electrodes one centimeter apart and of sufficient area so that the solution contains exactly one mole of electrolyte.
