normal like "liter"? Thermal Conductivity at 23°C............................. 0.17 W m-1 K-1

What does that entire term of "W m-1 K-1" mean in laymen's english (please use as much detail as possible)?

Also, how would I convert it to something such as Watts per liter or some other unit of volume? thanks :)
The m stands for "mole" or "meter"?
thanks :) When you say meter, does the equation take into account thickness also or just length regardless of thickness?
