Question

How Do You Find The Cell Constant Experimentally?

Answer 1

Cell constant-

For finding the cell constant, the conductance of the standard solution should be found, potassium chloride is used as a standard solution whose conductivity at different temperatures and different concentrations is known.

For example, if the conductivity of $\mathrm{KCL}$ is $0.012$ then the cell constant will be determined as

Cell constant= conductivity/conduction=0.012/x.

This expression gives the value of cell constant which is used to calculate conductivity which can be done either from conductance or resistance of a given electrolytic solution.
