Solution
The cell constant of a conductivity cell remains constant for a cell.
Explanation:
The cell constant is described as the ratio of the length of the object and the area of cross-section. It can be written as follows
G = `l/A`
As l and A remains constant for an object it can be inferred that cell constant for a conductivity cell remains constant for a cell.
