Question:

The conductivity of pure water is 5.5 x 10-8 Ω-1 cm-1. What is the resistance measured for this sample of water in the conductivity cell? (Given: Cell constant = 0.2063 cm-1)

Options:

3.75 x 106 Ω

3.75 x 104 Ω

3.75 x 102 Ω

3.75 x 1010 Ω

Correct Answer:

3.75 x 106 Ω

Explanation:

Conductivity = Conductance x cell constant

Κ = G x σ

5.5 x 10-8 = \(\frac{1}{R}\) X 0.2063

R = 3.75 x 106 Ω
