Molarity

Molarity, abbreviated as M, is a measure of the concentration of a solute in a solution.  Molarity is a basic concept in chemistry and is used extensively in various calculations, including dilutions, stoichiometry, and determining reaction rates.  It provides a convenient way to express the concentration of a solution in a quantitative manner.
