conductivity
Conductivity refers to the ability or measure of a material to conduct or transmit heat, electricity, or sound. It is typically determined by the nature of the substance and its state. Different substances have varied levels of conductivity depending on their composition. High conductivity indicates that a substance has a high level of transmitting property.
Webster Dictionary
Conductivitynoun
the quality or power of conducting, or of receiving and transmitting, as heat, electricity, etc.; as, the conductivity of a nerve
The Standard Electrical Dictionary
Conductivity
The relative power of conducting the electric current possessed by different substances. A path for the current through the ether is opened by the presence of a body of proper quality, and this quality, probably correlated to opacity, is termed conductivity. There is no perfect conductor, all offer some resistance, q. v., and there is hardly any perfect non-conductor. It is the reverse and reciprocal of resistance.
