What is the relationship between resistance (ohm) and conductance (Siemens). Explain the relationship using ohm’s law.
 

Sounds like an assignment in school.

Siemen = 1/ohm.
 

In the old ancient days the conductance was in mho units (Ohm spelled backwards) and the symbol was upper case Omega up side down.
 

u might wanna go here...

The opposite of conductivity is resistivity.
 

Resistance and conductance are the same thing. Only dualism is in between. The resistance of series connected resistors is sum of all resistancies and the conductance of parallel conected conductances is sum of all conductancies.
 

they are inverse 1 ohm = 1/1siemen
