Best Answer

A siemens is a unit of conductance or admittance, expressed as the reciprocal of resistance or impedance. (Siemens = 1/ohms)

One microsiemens is 1 megohm.

How do you convert from picosiemens per meter to microsiemens per centimeter?

To convert from picosiemes to microsiemens, you have to divide by a million. To convert from "per meter" to "per centimeter", you would multiply by a million. The end result is that you divide by 10,000.

How do you convert 123 milliohms to microsiemens?

Siemens is the reciprocal of ohm. You can convert from milliohms to ohms, then take the reciprocal. The answer will be in Siemens.


Why to use 84 microsiemens conductivity standard solution?

Standard solutions are used to check instruments and methods of analysis.


How do you convert PPM to microSiemens?

You cannot since there is no equivalence. MicroSiemens is a unit of measurement of electrical conductance while PPM refers to parts per million and is a pure number (ratio). The two measure different things and, according to basic principles of dimensional analysis, any attempt at conversion from one to the other is fundamentally flawed.


How do you convert from mhos per centimeters to microsiemens per centimeters?

mho/cm = S/cm = 10^3 mS/cm


What is 127 microsiemens per cm converted to microgram per cm2?

How do you convert ohm centimeters to micro siemens centimeters?

Up until about the late 1970's the units of EC were micromhos per centimeter (µmhos/cm) after which they were changed to microSiemens/cm1 µS/cm = 1 µmho/cm.CorrectionThis is true, but the answer and the question illustrate why the "mho" was changed to the "siemens": it's too easy to confuse "mho" and "ohm" Incidentally, the mho was intended to be the ohm spelled backwards, to illustrate that the mho is the inverse of the ohm, but as we see, this turned out to be more confusing than helpful. The original question is how to convert µS cm to ohm cm. I assume that the original poster wanted to convert ohm cm to µS/cm (microSiemens divided by centimeters, not multiplied)In that case, the answer is that S/cm are the inverse of Ohm cm. So:1/ 1 megaohm cm = 1 microS/cm

Water in it's purest form?

A water distilled in a platinum installation - Kohlrausch water - with an electrical conductivity of less than 0,055 microSiemens/cm at 25 0C. But the absolute purity is only an ideal which cannot be attained.
