Molar and Equivalent Conductivity
Specific Conductance (k)

In electrochemistry, specific conductance (k) is an evaluation of how well water (comprising the ionized substances) can conduct an electrical current. The magnitude of conductivity increases with increasing amount and mobility of ions across the solution.

Specific conductance can be also be defined as the conductance of a material or solution between two electrodes of cross sectional area 1 cmand separated by a distance of 1 cm.

Unit of specific conductance:     = mho. cm-1  (C.G.S system) or Siemens. m-1   (S.I system)
