The conductance of a $0.0015 \mathrm{M}$ aqueous solution of a weak monobasic acid was determined by using a conductivity cell consisting of platinized $\mathrm{Pt}$ electrodes. The distance between the electrodes is $120 \mathrm{~cm}$ with an area of cross section of $1 \mathrm{~cm}^2$. The conductance of this solution was found to be $5 \times 10^{-7} \mathrm{~S}$. The $\mathrm{pH}$ of the solution is $4$ . The value of limiting molar conductivity $\left(\Lambda_{\mathrm{m}}^0\right)$ of this weak monobasic acid in aqueous solution is $\mathrm{Z} \times 10^2 \mathrm{~S} \mathrm{~cm}^{-1} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1}$.
