The correct spelling is siemens, and it is the SI unit for conductance -the reciprocal of resistance. The mho is simply an obsolete unit for the same thing, and is numerically equal to the siemens.

What is effect of dilution on conductance?

The conductance of a given conductor, C = La/l ..(i)\ L = l/Ra ..(ii)The resistance is expressed in units of ohm, the conductance has units of ohm-1 or mho.The conductance of solutions is also governed by the same relations. From (i), if l = 1,a = 1, the specific conductance L = C. That is,the specific conductance (L) is the conductance of the solution enclosed between two electrodes of 1 sq. cm area and 1 cm apart. when you dilute the solution the concentration decrease and the specific conductance also decreaseThe conductance of a solution depends upon the number of ions present and hence on the concentration. To compare the conductivity of different solutions, it is necessary to take the concentration of the solutions into consideration. It is done by using equivalentconductance, l.
