Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Silicon or germanium has the highest conductivity at 298 K has to be identified.
Concept introduction:
Conductivity of an electrolyte solution is a measurement of the amount of its ability to conduct electricity.
The SI unit of conductivity is siemens per meter (S/m).
