Molar conductivity and limited molar conductivity are important concepts in electro-analytical chemistry. They are used to describe the conductance of a solution and can be applied to determine dissociation constants for weak electrolytes like ethanoic acid.

1. Molar Conductivity (Λm): Molar conductivity is a measure of the ability of a solution of an electrolyte to carry an electric current. It is defined as the conductivity of a solution containing 1 mole of the electrolyte dissolved in it. The unit of molar conductivity is S m² mol⁻¹. Mathematically, molar conductivity is represented as Λm = κ * V, where κ is the conductivity of the solution in Siemens per meter (S/m), and V is the volume of the solution in liters containing 1 mole of the electrolyte.
