Answer : 2. "1"
Explanation :

Answer: B) 1 Explanation: The product of a number and its reciprocal is always equals to 1.   For Example : Let the number be 4. Now, its reciprocal is 1/4 Hence, required product = 4 x 1/4 = 1.   Now, take the number as -15. Then its reciprocal is -1/15 Required product = -15 x -1/15 = 1.   Hence, the product of a number and its reciprocal is 1.

Answer : 2. "Siemens m2/equivalent"
Explanation :

Answer: B) Siemens m2/equivalent Explanation: Equivalent conductance is defined as the conductance of an electrolyte solution containing one gram equivalent of the electrolyte. It is equal to the product of specific conductance (k) of the solution and the volume (V) of the solution that contains one gram equivalent of the electrolyte.    λ = k x V   Unit of spceific conductance k is Siemens / m. Volume of the solution V is m3 Now, required equivalent conductance unit is Siemens.m2/equivalent .
