The molarity of a solution is the number of moles of solute per liter of solution; e.g., a solution of glucose in water containing 180.16 grams (1 gram-molecular weight, or mole) of glucose per liter of solution is referred to as one molar (1 M ). Or go here for more information.

I genuinely though that you were asking us to explain morality. I Was thinking that “Explain morality, thanks” was arguably the most difficult question ever asked here.

However, molarity is much simpler – it’s the calculation of the prevalence of a particular solute in a solution – in short, how much stuff x there is in an amount of stuff y.

I am not a chemist, though.
