alleryConductance is the:
ASame as resistance
BVoltage
CReciprocal of resistance: G = 1/R (siemens)
DCurrent
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. Reciprocal of resistance: G = 1/R (siemens)
G = 1/R, measured in siemens (S = ohm⁻¹).
For ionic solutions, this characterizes ease of charge flow.
Specific conductance κ = G × (l/A).
