Hi, the question is " a conductivity cell has plane parallel electrodes, each 2.3cm x 2.3cm in area, spaced 2.5cm apart. when the cell is filled with an electrolyte , the measured conductance is found to be 2752uS ( i think thats micro siemens)?  what is the conductivity of the solution.

so far what i have done is multipled 2.3 x 2.3 and got 5.29. i know i need to multipy  the conductance by the cell constant. L/A. L being distance between electrodes and A being cross section area of electrolyte solution

so what i did was divide 2.5/5.29 = .4725 and multiplied that by 2752x10-6 S. and got a conductivity of .0013/S cm-1   

i am very new to all this and not sure if i have gone about doing this correctly?

can anyone shed some light please. thanks
