The unit for molar conductivity is |
$S\, m^2\, mol^{-1}$ $S\, m^{-1}$ $S\, m\, mol^{-1}$ $S^{-1}\, m^2\, mol^{-1}$ |
$S\, m^2\, mol^{-1}$ |
The correct answer is Option (1) → $S\, m^2\, mol^{-1}$ The correct unit of molar conductivity ($Λ_m$) is: $\text{S m}^2\text{mol}^{-1}$ Why: Molar conductivity is defined as $Λ_m=\frac{Κ}{c}$ where • Κ (conductivity) has unit $\text{S m}^{-1}$, • c (concentration) has unit $\text{mol m}^{-3}$. So, $Λ_m=\frac{\text{S m}^{-1}}{\text{mol m}^{-3}}=\text{S m}^2\text{mol}^{-1}$ |
