Specific conductance of 0.1 N KCl solution at 23°C is 0.012 ohm⁻¹ cm⁻¹. Resistance of cell containing the solution at same temperature was found to be 55 ohm. The cell constant is:

  1. 0.918 cm⁻¹
  2. 0.66 cm⁻¹
  3. 1.142 cm⁻¹
  4. 1.12 cm⁻¹

Correct answer: 0.918 cm⁻¹

Solution

The cell constant (G*) is calculated using the formula G* = κ × R, where κ is the specific conductance and R is the resistance. Substituting κ = 0.012 ohm⁻¹ cm⁻¹ and R = 55 ohm, we get G* = 0.012 × 55 = 0.66 cm⁻¹.
