What is the difference between molarity molality and normality
Answers
Answer:
Molarity:
Molarity refers to the number of moles of a substance present in 1 Litre of solution
It is denoted as "M"
Formula for molarity
M = (no of moles)/(volume of solution).
"Volume of solution should be taken in litres."
Molality:
Molality refers to the number of moles of solute in 1 kg of solvent.
It is denoted by "m"
Formula for molality
m = (no. of moles)/(weight of solvent)
"Weight of the solvent should be taken in kg".
Normality:
It is the number of equivalents of a solute present in 1 litre of solution
It is denoted by "N"
Formula for normality:
N = (no. of equivalents)/(vol. of solution)
Molarity, molality, and normality are all units of concentration in chemistry. Molarity ( ) is defined as the number of moles of solute per liter of solution. Molality ( ) is defined as the number of moles of solute per kilogram of solvent. Normality ( ) is defined as the number of equivalents per liter of solution.
