percent (m/v)
g/ml x 100%
percent (m/m)
g/g x 100%
percent (v/v)
ml/ml x 100%
ppm
solute/solven x 10^6
ppb
solute/solvent x 10^9
molar concentration (Molarity)
molarity (or molar concentration) which is defined as moles of solute per volume of solutions in litre. The unit is expressed as M or mol/L.
Please note that sometimes “C” is used as the symbol of molar concentration instead of M, and M is only used to show the unit as an alternative to mol/L)
Concentration formula
c=n/v
Moles don’t change where?
moles of solute in stock solution = moles of solute in dilute solution
therefore: C1 × V1 = C2 × V2
concentrated vs. dilute
refers to the ratio of solute to solution
