I would like to calculate the Conductivity (µS cm-1) from summation of the concentration of Chloride and Bicarbonate (mg/l), is there any equation of factor to calculate conductivity?
Thanks.
Dear Tiba Jassam,
You cannot convert the unit of liquid concentration of mg /l to the conductivity of µS cm-1. They are different measurements for different physical values.
Do you mean the conductivity of liquid?
Dear Tiba Jassam Kaison Al-Imari
You should check for molar conductivity textbooks. Each ion has a conductivity, depending on its charge, size and mobility. Normally small ions such as H+ and OH- contributes a lot to the conductivity of your solution. There are tables everywhere with the molar conductivity of common ions, so with the values of each ion and their concentration you can estimate the total conductivity of your system.

The calculations are quite simple. Search for Kohlrausch's Law
