Molar conductivity is defined as the conductivity of an electrolyte solution divided

by the molar concentration of the electrolyte, and so measures the efficiency with
which a given electrolyte conducts electricity in solution. It is the conducting
power of all the ions produced by dissolving one mole of an electrolyte in
solution. Its units are siemens per meter per molarity, or siemens meter-squared
per mole. The usual symbol is a capital lambda, , or m. It can also be defined as
follows: Molar conductivity of a solution at a given concentration is the
conductance of the volume (V) of the solution containing one mole of electrolyte
kept between two electrodes with area of cross section (A) and at a distance of
unit length
