Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Molarity (M) is defined as the number of moles of solute dissolved in one liter (L) of solution. Therefore, option A moles of solute/L of solution is the correct choice. Option B refers to molality, option C refers to molarity in a smaller volume, option D refers to weight/volume percent, and option E refers to grams of solute dissolved in one liter of solution, which is the same as molarity.
