How to Calculate Molarity Of A Solution

Molarity is defined as the number of moles of solute that is dissolved in one liter of solution. It is also known as molar concentration and is denoted by the letter “M.”

Molarity Formula

M = n/v

Where,

• M denotes the molar concentration
• n denotes the number of moles
• v denotes the total volume of solution in liters

Steps to follow to calculate the molarity of a solution by using the above formula,

• To find the molarity of a solution, we divide the number of moles of solute by the total volume of liters of solution. 

• When the amount of solute is given in grams, then we must first find or calculate the number of moles of solute.

• To find the number of moles of solute, we can calculate by dividing by the solute molecular mass. So, when it is divided by total volume, the answer is molarity.

• The volume of specific mass in given grams of solution can also be calculated by the process by finding the number of moles of solute as above. Then divided with molarity given to find the total volume of the solution.

The molarity of a solution can be calculated by finding the ratio of several moles of solute dissolved in the solution with the volume of the solution in litres. Molarity is the measure of concentration of a solute present in a solution. In this article, we will learn what molarity is, how to calculate molarity and some sample problems on the molarity concept.
