Questions asked by users might not always be phrased in the clearest way.
What is specfice conductance and how is it different from molar conductance
Accepted Answer
Specific conductance is the conductance of a solution containing one gram equivalent weight of electrolyte dissolved in all the solution, when the electrodes are placed exactly one centimeter apart. Molar conductance is the conductance of a solution containing one mole of electrolyte dissolved in all the solution, when the electrodes are placed exactly one centimeter apart. Thus specific conductance is a characteristic of an electrolyte, whereas molar conductance depends on both the electrolyte and the solvent.
