1. Solute Quantity: n = 0.5 mol = 0.5000 moles
2. Solution Volume: V = 1 L = 1.0000 Liters
3. Molarity: M = n / V = (0.5000 mol) / (1.0000 L) = 0.5000 mol/L (Molar)

What is Molarity?

Molarity is the number of moles of solute dissolved per liter of solution, the standard concentration unit in chemistry.

Formula & Step-by-Step Calculation

M = n / V = m / (MolarMass × V)

Moles of solute divided by liters of solution.

Worked Step-by-Step Examples

Example 1

0.5 moles of NaCl dissolved in 1.0 Liter of water

Solution: 0.500 M (mol/L)
• 0.5 mol / 1.0 L = 0.500 M
