Water resistivity can be  estimated ( approximately ) by salinity. Specific electrical conductivity is better option. However Cl and temperature can effect up to some extend.

Can we calculate Resistivity of water using EC of water. if EC is measured in micro-S/cm. what is formula in that case??

Dear Matteo,
The simplest method is the measurement of the resistivity by reading a resistivity device. In the absence of such a device, you can take the measure
of the resistivity by the "method of the pipe", the results are relatively
imprecise, especially for conductive water and whose implementation
work requires certain precautions.
With my best regards
