Molarity from mass percent and solution density (When w is mass % of solute, d is solution density in g cm⁻³, M_solute in g/mol: M (mol)

jee-mainjee-advancedneet-ug

When w is mass % of solute, d is solution density in g cm⁻³, M_solute in g/mol: M (mol L⁻¹) = (w × d × 10) / M_solute

What each symbol means

SymbolWhat it stands for
MMolarity (mol L⁻¹)
dDensity of solution (g cm⁻³)
wMass percentage of solute (g per 100 g solution)
M_soluteMolar mass of solute (g mol⁻¹)

When to use this

Single solute; w is weight/weight percent; solution volume from mass/density.
