Ohm-1 cm-1 |
The unit of conductivity is:\( 2. \, \text{Ohm}^{-1} \, \text{cm}^{-1} \) Conductivity (\(\sigma\)) is the reciprocal of resistivity (\(\rho\)), and the unit of resistivity is ohm-cm (\(\Omega \cdot \text{cm}\)). Therefore, the unit of conductivity is ohm\(^{-1}\) cm\(^{-1}\), which represents how many siemens per centimeter (S/cm) the material can conduct. Siemens (S) is the unit of electrical conductance, and it is the inverse of ohms (\(\Omega\)). |
