Solution

$1.$ The dielectric constant of a substance may be defined as the ratio of the permittivity of the substance to the permittivity of the free space.

$2.$ This is an expression of the extent to which a material can concentrate electric flux, and it is the electrical equivalent of relative magnetic permeability.

$3.$ It is mathematically expressed as: $K=\varepsilon / \varepsilon_0$ where $K$ is the dielectric constant, $\varepsilon$ is the permittivity of the substance, $\varepsilon_0$ is the permittivity of the free space.

$4.$ At ambient conditions, the dielectric constant of liquid water is around $78. 4$.

$5.$ The dielectric constant of air is $1.00059$.

$6.$ The dielectric constant of metals is infinite.

$7.$ The dielectric constant of metal is infinite as the net electric field inside the metal is $zero$.

Thus, The Dielectric constant of a metal is infinite.
