Abstract Aiming at the difficulty in the electrical resistance measurement, we develop a simple statistical model for the carbon nanotubes adequately dispersed in available insulated liquid and introduce the concept of "the most probability". Based on this model, we obtain the function between macroscopic resistance R and resistance of an individual nanotube, R₀, from which one can calculate the resistance of an individual nanotube by measuring the macroscopic resistance. By computational simulation, we prove the reliability of the model. Then, we analyse the feasibility of the model when applied to experiment.
