The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation

The conductivity (κ) is related to resistance (R) and the cell constant (K) by the equation:

\(κ = K × (\frac 1R)\)

Substitute the given values:

\(0.146 × 10^{–3} = K × (\frac {1}{1500})\)

Solve for K:

\(K = (0.146 × 10^{–3}) × 1500\)

\(K = 0.219\)

The correct answer is (A) : 0.219.
