Molar concentration, also called molarity, amount concentration or substance concentration, is a measure of the concentration of a solute in a solution, or of any chemical species in terms of amount of substance in a given volume. A commonly used unit for molar concentration used in chemistry is mol/L. A solution of concentration 1 mol/L is also denoted as ''1 molar'' (1 M). ==Definition== Molar concentration or molarity is most commonly expressed in units of moles of solute per litre of solution. For use in broader applications, it is defined as amount of solute per unit volume of solution, or per unit volume available to the species, represented by lowercase ''c'': : Here, ''n'' is the amount of the solute in moles,〔 ''N'' is the number of molecules present in the volume ''V'' (in litres), the ratio ''N''/''V'' is the number concentration ''C'', and ''N''A is the Avogadro constant, approximately 6.022 mol−1. Or more simply: 1 molar = 1 M = 1 mole/litre. In thermodynamics the use of molar concentration is often not convenient, because the volume of most solutions slightly depends on temperature due to thermal expansion. This problem is usually resolved by introducing temperature correction factors, or by using a temperature-independent measure of concentration such as molality. The reciprocal quantity represents the dilution (volume) which can appear in Ostwald's law of dilution. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Molar concentration」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
