Equation
• We know that
R = ρd/A
Where,
R is a resistance
ρ is a specific resistivity
d is a distance between the electrodes
A is a surface area
AEI305.71 To 72 8
Derivation
R = ρK
where
K = d/A
= cell constant

observed conductivity
= R/ρ = 1
specific conductivity
or specific conductivity =
cell constant X observed conductivity
