Question

Define the following terms :
(i) Molar conductivity (),
(ii) Secondary batteries.
(i) Molar conductivity () : Molar conductivity is defined as the conductivity due to all the ions produced by dissolving one mole of an electrolyte in solution.
(ii) In secondary batteries, the reactions can be reversed the cell reactions imposing a higher voltage than the E.M.F. of cell (external voltage). These batteries can be recharged by passing
electric current and used again and again.
