Definition. Molar concentration or molarity is most commonly expressed in units of moles of solute per litre of solution. [ 1] For use in broader applications, it is defined as amount of substance of solute per unit volume of solution, or per unit volume available to the species, represented by lowercase : [ 2]
The term molality is formed in analogy to molarity which is the molar concentration of a solution. The earliest known use of the intensive property molality and of its adjectival unit, the now-deprecated molal, appears to have been published by G. N. Lewis and M. Randall in the 1923 publication of Thermodynamics and the Free Energies of Chemical Substances. [3]
Orders of magnitude (molar concentration) This page lists examples of the orders of magnitude of molar concentration. Source values are parenthesized where unit conversions were performed. M denotes the non-SI unit molar : 1 M = 1 mol/L = 10 −3 mol/m 3.
Molar volume. In chemistry and related fields, the molar volume, symbol Vm, [ 1] or of a substance is the ratio of the volume ( V) occupied by a substance to the amount of substance ( n ), usually at a given temperature and pressure. It is also equal to the molar mass ( M) divided by the mass density ( ρ ):
The SI unit of molar absorption coefficient is the square metre per mole (m 2 /mol), but in practice, quantities are usually expressed in terms of M −1 ⋅cm −1 or L⋅mol −1 ⋅cm −1 (the latter two units are both equal to 0.1 m 2 /mol). In older literature, the cm 2 /mol is sometimes used; 1 M −1 ⋅cm −1 equals 1000 cm 2 /mol.
The molar conductivity of an electrolyte solution is defined as its conductivity divided by its molar concentration. [ 1][ 2] where: c is the molar concentration of the electrolyte. The SI unit of molar conductivity is siemens metres squared per mole (S m 2 mol −1 ). [ 2]
Dimension. M N−1. In chemistry, the molar mass (or molecular weight) ( M) of a chemical compound is defined as the ratio between the mass and the amount of substance (measured in moles) of any sample of the compound. [ 1] The molar mass is a bulk, not molecular, property of a substance. The molar mass is an average of many instances of the ...
