The specific conductance has the unit:
Correct answer: A. Ohm⁻¹·cm⁻¹
- A. Ohm⁻¹·cm⁻¹
- B. Ohm·cm
- C. Ohm·cm⁻¹
- D. Ohm⁻¹·cm
Explanation
Specific conductance, or conductivity (κ., is the reciprocal of resistivity (ρ.. Since the unit of resistivity is Ohm·cm, the unit of conductivity is (Ohm·cm.⁻¹, which is Ohm⁻¹·cm⁻¹.

About Electrochemistry
Electrochemistry describes electron transfer through oxidation and reduction, identifies oxidizing and reducing agents, and applies oxidation numbers to balance redox equations. It also covers electrode potential and the standard hydrogen electrode, which provides the reference for comparing the reduction tendencies of other electrodes.
