Sp.conductance=cell constant *conductance ;sp. cond.is directly prop. to conductance where m I wrong?

Question

As we know conductance inc. with dilution while sp. conductance dec. with dilution.

Answer 1

What you have said in the first statement is absolutely correct. The wrong one is the second statement because as dilution increases both conductance and specific conductance decreases. Since no. of ions per unit area increases with dilution and hence conductance (whatever it may be) decreases.

Answer 2

You're using some old terms here. The modern nomenclature is



Conductivity=Conductance x Cell constant

Molar conductivity = conductivity/molar concentration



As concentration increases the conductivity goes up (more ions in solution)

As concentration increases molar conductivity decreases (ions interactions increase).

Answer 3

Specfic conductivity is reciprocal of Specfic condcutivity.

Now if you go by this then s = 1/r and r (specfic resistivity is rleated to Resistance by R=r(L/A). so if you correlate both equation you get the relaton between specific Conductivty ..

Answer 4

G*=R.k

G*=CELL CONST

R=RESISTANCE

K=CONDUCTIVITY
