Thus in the past, megohm-cm was used, sometimes abbreviated to "megohm". Sometimes, conductivity is given in "microsiemens" (omitting the distance term in the unit). While this is an error, it can often be assumed to be equal to the traditional μS/cm. Often, by typographic limitations μS/cm is expressed as uS/cm.
The siemens (symbol: S) is the unit of electric conductance, electric susceptance, and electric admittance in the International System of Units (SI). Conductance, susceptance, and admittance are the reciprocals of resistance, reactance, and impedance respectively; hence one siemens is equal to the reciprocal of one ohm (Ω −1) and is also referred to as the mho.
Electrical conductivity can be expressed using a number of different units but the international standard is EC, and the unit of measurement is usually milliSiemens or microSiemens. The difference between these two units of measurement is the placement of the decimal point, so 1 milliSiemens is equal to 1000 microSiemens.

You know, I’m older now, a little more of a vet [with a] more focused, more locked-in approach,” he says. “I’ve got goals. I'm just there trying to accomplish them.” ...

m is the molar conductivity at infinite dilution (or limiting molar conductivity), which can be determined by extrapolation of Λ m as a function of √ c, K is the Kohlrausch coefficient, which depends mainly on the stoichiometry of the specific salt in solution, α is the dissociation degree even for strong concentrated electrolytes,
