Preferred Label : ionic conductivity;
IUPAC definition : Defined for ionic species B by λ z B F u B where z B is the charge number of
the ionic species B, F is the Faraday constant, and u B is the electric mobility of
species B. In most current practice z B is taken as unity, i.e. ionic conductivity
is taken as that of species such as Na sup class plus /sup , Ca sup 2 /sup /2,
La sup 3 /sup /3 etc. To avoid ambiguity the species considered should be clearly
stated, e.g. as λ Ca 2 / 2.;
