Conductivity to Resistivity Formula
The following formula is used to convert conductivity to resistivity.
R = 1/C
- Where R is the resistivity
- C is the conductivity
To calculate resistivity from conductivity, divide 1 by the value of conductivity.
Conductivity to Resistivity Definition
Conductivity is defined as the reciprocal of resistivity, therefore, the resistivity is also the reciprocal of conductivity.
Example
How to convert conductivity to resistivity?
- First, determine the conductivity.
Using the calculator linked above, calculate the conductivity.
- Next, calculate the resistivity.
Calculate the resistivity using the equation above.
FAQ
Conductivity and resistivity are opposites. The former being the ability of a material to transmit electricity, and the latter being the resistance to transmittance.
