Molar conductivity

Molar conductivity is a measure of how well an electrolyte—such as salt or acid—conducts electricity when dissolved in water, per mole of substance. It reflects the ability of ions to carry electric charge through the solution. As the concentration decreases, ions move more freely, and molar conductivity increases. This property helps scientists understand how electrolytes behave in different conditions, indicating their efficiency in conducting electricity and their degree of dissociation in solution. Essentially, molar conductivity links the quantity of substance to its electrical conduction ability in a given solution.
