"Answer the question on basis of passage given below:
\(G = \frac{\kappa A}{l}\) = k (both \(A\) and \(l\) are unity in their appropriate units in m or cm)
Molar conductivity of a solution at a given concentration is the conductance of the volume \(V\) of solution containing one mole of electrolyte kept between two electrodes with area of cross section \(A\) and distance of unit length (\(l\)). Therefore,
\(\Lambda_m = \frac{\kappa A}{l}\)
Since \(l = 1\) and \(A = V\) (volume containing 1 mole of electrolyte),
\(\Lambda_m = \kappa V\)
What does \(\kappa\) represent in the paragraph?"

  1. A Rate constant
  2. B Conductivity
  3. C Equilibrium constant
  4. D Conductance
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) Conductivity

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The passage states \(G = \frac{\kappa A}{l}\) and \(\Lambda_m = \frac{\kappa A}{l}\). In these formulas, \(G\) is conductance, \(\Lambda_m\) is molar conductivity, \(A\) is area, and \(l\) is length. The term \(\kappa\) represents conductivity.
