Converting moles and conductivity problem?
« on: October 30, 2012, 03:42:24 AM »
What molarity of aluminum sulfate solution would show the same conductivity as 0.030M CaSO4 at 20,000 units?

I have no idea where to even start with this problem. How would I solve this?

Thanks :)

How would you calculate conductivity of the aluminum sulfate solution?

I guess the question really means "what molarity of aluminum sulfate is needed for the solution to have a conductivity of 20 kS".
