It is an experimental fact that the impedance of an electrolyte as usually measured (by conductance bridge in a two electrode cell) is dependent on the frequency of the applied voltage. A quantity of fundamental physical significance in the elucidation of the structure of an electrolyte is the mobility of the conducting species. In order to know the mobilities of conducting species it is necessary to know the resistance of the particular electrolyte. However in order to establish the nature of the electrolyte i.e. its structure, resistance measurements are required which are precise and accurate and the variation of resistance (conductance) with temperature must be accurately know.
