The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to derive the expression for molar conductivity (λ_m) in terms of specific resistance (X) and molarity (Y) of the electrolyte solution. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Definitions**: - Specific resistance (X) is also known as resistivity. It is a measure of how strongly a material opposes the flow of electric current. - Molarity (Y) is the concentration of a solution expressed as the number of moles of solute per liter of solution. 2. **Identify the Formula for Molar Conductivity**: - The formula for molar conductivity (λ_m) is given by: \[ \lambda_m = \frac{\kappa \times 1000}{Y} \] where κ (kappa) is the conductivity of the solution. 3. **Relate Conductivity to Specific Resistance**: - Conductivity (κ) is the reciprocal of specific resistance (X): \[ \kappa = \frac{1}{X} \] 4. **Substitute Conductivity into the Molar Conductivity Formula**: - Substitute the expression for conductivity into the molar conductivity formula: \[ \lambda_m = \frac{\frac{1}{X} \times 1000}{Y} \] 5. **Simplify the Expression**: - This simplifies to: \[ \lambda_m = \frac{1000}{XY} \] 6. **Final Expression**: - Thus, the expression for molar conductivity (λ_m) in terms of specific resistance (X) and molarity (Y) is: \[ \lambda_m = \frac{1000}{XY} \] ### Conclusion: The final answer is: \[ \lambda_m = \frac{1000}{XY} \]
