Molarity

  • Concentration of a solution is a measure of the amount of solute that is dissolved in a given quantity of solvent.
  • Dilute solutions is one that contains only low concentrations of solute
  • Concentrated solution has high concentrations
  • Molarity (M) is the number of moles of a solute dissolved per liter of solution.
    • a.k.a.  Molar concentration
    • Read as molar
  • Determining molarity just calc the number of moles solute in 1L of solution
    • 1.Molarity (M) = moles solute____
    •                           Liters of solution
