Equivalent conductance is defined as the conductance of an electrolyte solution containing one gram equivalent
of the electrolyte. It is equal to the product of specific conductance (k) of
the solution and the volume (V) of the solution that contains one gram
equivalent of the electrolyte.
\lambda= k ´ V
unit of spceific conductance isSiemens. m-1.
volume of the solution is m^3
equivalent conductance unit isSiemens. m^2 equivalent^-1
