What is Molarity?

Back

Molarity (M) is a measure of concentration defined as the number of moles of solute per liter of solution.

How is Molarity calculated?

Back

Molarity = moles of solute / liters of solution.

What happens to Molarity when you dilute a solution?

Back

Diluting a solution decreases its Molarity.
