<em>Conductivity is measured with a probe and a meter. </em>

Voltage is applied between two electrodes in a probe immersed in the sample water. The drop in voltage caused by the resistance of the water is used to calculate the conductivity per centimeter.

Conductivity is a measurement of the ability of an aqueous solution to transfer an electrical current.

Explanation:

To calculate the conductivity of a solution you simply multiply the concentration of each ion in solution by its molar conductivity and charge then add these values for all ions in solution.

How long will it take a plane to go 800 miles if it’s traveling at an average speed of 650 miles per hour?

Naya [18.7K]

If there is NO wind resistance, just plain math, this is the answer.

To get the answer you would divide 800 by 650.

800/650 = 1.230769231 (exactly)

That would translate to exactly <span>1 hour 13 minutes and 50 seconds </span>

What is a chemical entity that forms a complex ion around a central atom?

stiks02 [169]

A coordination complex consists of a central atom or Jon, which usually metallic and is called the coordination centre, and a surrounding array of bound molecules or ions, that are in turn known as ligand or complexing agents

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer: The equivalent mass of the acid is 83.16 grams

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles for given molarity, we use the equation:

$\text{Moles of solute}={\text{Molarity of the solution}}\times{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}$
