The resistance ( \(R\) ) of an object is given by the expression \(R=\rho \frac{l}{A}\)
The inverse of \(R\) is called conductance and the inverse of \(\rho\) is called conductivity or specific conductance represented by \(\kappa\).
The conductivity depends upon the nature of the material (insulator, semiconductor or conductor) and the temperature of the substance.
Similarly, the conductance due to the ions present in the solution. (ionic conductance) depends upon the nature of the electrolyte, size of ions, the nature of the solvent and the temperature.
Molar conductivity ( \(\Lambda _{ m }\) ) of a solution at a given concentration is the conductance of volume \(V\) containing one mole of electrolyte kept between two electrodes of area \(A\) and unit distance apart.
It is given by the expression.\(A_m=\kappa V .\)
Molar conductivity increases with decrease in concentration and when concentration approaches sero, it is called limiting molar conductivity.
The decrease is linear for a strong electrolyte. However, for a weak electrolyte the change is gradual at higher concentrations and sharp near zero concentration.
Using limiting molar conductivity values of strong electrolytes we can calculate the limiting molar conductivity of weak electrolytes using Kohlrausch law of independent migration of ions.
From molar conductivity and limiting molar conductivity we can determine the degree of dissociation \(\left(\frac{\Lambda_m}{\Lambda_m^0}\right)\) and the ionisation constant of a weak acid.
The limiting molar conductivity values for \(HCl , NaCl\) and \(CH _3 COONa\) are \(425.9,126.4\) and \(91.0 S cm ^2 mol^{-1}\), respectively.

The concentration dependence of the rate of a reaction is called the differential rate equation. It is not always convenient to determine the instantaneous rate, as it is measured by calculating the slope of the tangent at point 't' in the concentration vs time plot. This makes it difficult to determine the rate and hence the order of the reaction. This difficulty is overcome by integrating the differential rate equation. This integrated rate equation gives a direct relation between concentrations at different times and the rate constant. The integrated rate equations are different for the reactions having different reaction orders.
