Abstract
The equivalent conductivity of an ion in solution is derived by multiplying the equivalent conductivity of the entire electrolyte, Λ, by the ion’s transport number. Λ is obtained directly from the specific conductivity, S, but a better way of converting S to Λ is through σi, the specific conductivity of ion i. Redefined to include the contribution of the counterion to the mobility of ion i, using a new concept of “ionic power”, σi is theoretically developed here and its concentration dependence is demonstrated and discussed for select electrolytes of different valence families.
