Question

Explain the term molarity

Short Note

Solution

Molarity is defined as the number of moles of the solute present in 1 litre of the solution. It is the most widely used unit and is denoted by M.
Molarity is expressed as follows:
Molarity (M) = `"Number of moles of solute"/"Volume of solution in litres"`
