The correct Answer is:
To find the cell constant of the conductance cell, we can use the formula for the cell constant (G*), which is given by: \[ G^* = \frac{L}{A} \] where: - \( L \) is the distance between the two electrodes (in cm), - \( A \) is the cross-sectional area of the electrodes (in cm²). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the values given in the problem:** - Distance between the electrodes, \( L = 1.5 \, \text{cm} \) - Cross-sectional area of each electrode, \( A = 0.75 \, \text{cm}^2 \) 2. **Substitute the values into the formula:** \[ G^* = \frac{1.5 \, \text{cm}}{0.75 \, \text{cm}^2} \] 3. **Perform the division:** \[ G^* = \frac{1.5}{0.75} = 2 \, \text{cm}^{-1} \] 4. **State the final result:** The cell constant \( G^* \) is \( 2 \, \text{cm}^{-1} \). ### Final Answer: The cell constant is \( 2 \, \text{cm}^{-1} \). ---
