250 cm3 solution containing 1 g of Ca(NO3)2 in conductivity cell offered a resistance of 48 ohms. The cell constant of conductivity of the solution is 0.56 cm-1. Find the molar conductivity.

Solution
                   Can(NO3)2 = 1 g164 g mol-1 = 0.0061 mol                               V = 250 cm3 = 0.250 L

                        M = nV = 0.00610.250=0.0244 MK = Cell constantResistance = 0.5648 = 1.167 × 10-2 ohm-1 cm-1   
   
                         m = 103KM = 103×1.167×10-20.0244 m = 478.28 s cm2 mol-1.
