What is meant by the capacitive current in a liquid dielectric when using AC to determine the resistivity as explained in the sentence below:
"Alternating current resistance measurements cannot successfully be made when the conductivity of a liquid solution is too low. This is because the capacitative current in the measuring cell may be so much larger than the resistive current that it prevents the latter from being determined accurately."

the thermal-neutron induced fission of 235U is 2.42 per fission
event; use the following data to calculate the mean number of
fission neutrons produced per initial thermal neutron in a large
volume sample of
(a) pure 235U (b) natural uranium 238U, and (c) uranium enriched to
3% in the 235U isotope.
Note: The microscopic absorption cross section for 235U is 694
barns. The cross section for 238U is 2.71 barns. The fission cross
section for 235U is 582 barns. Natural uranium contains 0.7%
235U.
