Question

Molarity is

• A. The number of moles of solute present in $1d{m}^3$ volume of solution
• B. The number of moles of solute dissolved in $1$ kg of solvent
• C. The number of moles of solute dissolved in $1$ kg of solution
• D. The number of moles of solute dissolved in $100d{m}^3$ volume of solution

Answer 1

Answer: (A)

Molarity is defined as the number of moles of solute dissolved in one litre or one $d{m}^3$ volume of solution. It is expressed by the symbol 'M'

Molarity $(M)=\frac{\text{ Number of moles of solute }}{\text{ Volume of solution (in }L\text{ or }d{m}^3\text{ ) }}$
