The conductivity of centimolar solution of KCl at 25 ° C is 0 . 0210   ohm - 1   cm - 1 and the resistance of the cell containing the solution at 25 ° C is 60   ohm . The value of cell constant is
Options
- A3 . 34   cm - 1
- B1 . 34   cm - 1
- C3 . 28   cm - 1
- D1 . 26   cm - 1
Correct answer
D. 1 . 26   cm - 1
Step-by-step solution
Conductivity κ = 0 . 0210   ohm - 1 cm - 1 Resistance R = 60   ohm The relation between specific conductance or conductivity and resistance is κ = 1 R l a In the above equation l a is the cell constant. l a = κ × R ⇒ l a = 0 . 0210 × 60 = 1 . 26   cm - 1
