Type: MCQ-numerical-Easy-Class 12

What is the conductivity of pure water, given the ion concentration is approximately 10^–7 M?

A

5 × 10^–5 S m^–1

B

0 × 10^–4 S m^–1

C

5.0 × 10^–6 S m^–1

D

7.0 × 10^–5 S m^–1

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

The NCERT text states that pure water has a low conductivity of 3.5 × 10^–5 S m^–1 due to the presence of hydrogen and hydroxyl ions at approximately 10^–7 M concentration.
