(N/A) The conductivity $(\kappa)$ is calculated using the formula: $\kappa = G \times G^*$.
Here,$G$ is the conductance,which is the reciprocal of resistance $(G = \frac{1}{R})$,and $G^*$ is the cell constant,defined as the ratio of the distance between electrodes $(l)$ to the area of cross-section $(A)$,i.e.,$G^* = \frac{l}{A}$.

Resistance of a conductivity cell (cell constant $129 \; m^{-1}$) filled with $74.5 \; ppm$ solution of $KCl$ is $100 \; \Omega$ (labelled as solution $1$). When the same cell is filled with $KCl$ solution of $149 \; ppm$,the resistance is $50 \; \Omega$ (labelled as solution $2$). The ratio of molar conductivity of solution $1$ and solution $2$ is i.e.,$\frac{\wedge_{1}}{\wedge_{2}} = x \times 10^{-3}$. The value of $x$ is (Nearest integer). Given,molar mass of $KCl$ is $74.5 \; g \; mol^{-1}$.
