Conductivity is valid Scrabble Word

Definitions for CONDUCTIVITY in dictionary:

NOUN:
• the power of conducting or transmitting
• the rate at which heat passes through a specified material, expressed as the amount of heat that flows per unit time through a unit area with a temperature gradient of one degree per unit distance
• the degree to which a specified material conducts electricity, calculated as the ratio of the current density in the material to the electric field which causes the flow of current.
• The quality or power of conducting, or of receiving and transmitting, as heat, electricity, etc.; as, the conductivity of a nerve.
• the transmission of heat or electricity or sound
OTHER DEFINITIONS:
• the quality or power of conducting or transmitting; as; the reciprocal of electrical resistivity; the quality of living matter responsible for the transmission of and progressive reaction to stimuli
