In a hiring freeze, an employer decides to stop hiring employees for all non-essential positions. It allows an employer to consolidate current employees and potentially restructure departments to complete the work that is essential for serving the customers of the business.
Since the electrical conductivity is a measure to the capacity of water to conduct electrical current, it is directly related to the concentration of salts dissolved in water, and therefore to the Total Dissolved Solids (TDS). Salts dissolve into positively charged ions and negatively charged ions, which conduct electricity.
We can further delve into this question by finding the resistivity of water. Many people have conducted tests for this value for one reason or another (mostly for filtration systems) and have found the resistivity of water to be approximately 182,000 Î©m at 25 Â°C. This makes pure water a horrible conductor.
