Molarity

“How can we quantify the number of moles in a liter of a solution?”

Chemical solutions can contain a wide variety of moles. Some may be dense, others may be sparse. We can quantify this by determining the Molarity of a substance, or the number of moles of a solute in a single liter of solution, symbolized by the equation Molarity (M) = moles of solute/liters of solution. Molarity is fundamental for computing chemical calculations.
