In electrochemistry, specific conductance is defined as (1000/N)* k, where N is the normality of the salt solution and k is the specific conductance. Current is carried by both anions and cations to a different degree. Thus, the equivalence of a salt is the sum of the ionic conductances of the cation and anion. If the ionic conductance of Na+  is 50.1 and that of Cl- is 76.6. What is the estimated concentration of NaCl in mg/L. The specific conductance of NaCl is 125x106.   A) 49      B) 58         C) 29           D) 38
