Detailed Solution

Molarity (M)

Definition: Moles of solute present in 1 litre of solution.

M = (moles of solute) / (volume of solution in litres)

Unit: mol L−1

Molality (m)

Definition: Moles of solute present in 1 kilogram of solvent.

m = (moles of solute) / (mass of solvent in kilograms)

Unit: mol kg−1

Normality (N)

Definition: Gram equivalents of solute present in 1 litre of solution.

N = (gram equivalents of solute) / (volume of solution in litres)

Unit: eq L−1

Quick Tip:

  • Molarity depends on solution volume → temperature sensitive.
  • Molality depends on solvent mass → temperature independent.
  • Normality uses equivalents → common in acid–base/redox titrations.
