Molarity Calculator

Moles = mass/molar mass; molarity = moles/final solution volume in litres.

Inputs and units

Enter solute mass in grams, molar mass in g/mol and final solution volume in mL. Use the correct compound form, including hydration, when choosing molar mass.

Calculation method

Moles = mass/molar mass; molarity = moles/final solution volume in litres.

Worked example

The example values are: Solute mass (g) = 5.844; Molar mass (g/mol) = 58.44; Final solution volume (mL) = 1000

  • Moles: 0.1
  • Molarity (mol/L): 0.1

Assumptions and limitations

Use final solution volume, not just solvent volume. Purity, hydration and temperature can affect preparation.

Using your result

Molarity Calculator FAQs

Is final solution volume the solvent volume?

No. Molarity uses the volume of the finished solution. Adding solute to a measured solvent volume does not generally leave that volume unchanged.
