Molarity

Solute concentration in a solution can be expressed in many ways. Molarity is the most commonly used unit to express concentration of a solute in a solution.

Molarity is defined as concentration of a solute in moles per liter. 

Molarity = $\frac{amount of solute (in mole)}{solution volume (in liter)}$

Since

Mole = $\frac{amount of subs\tan ce (in gram)}{Molar mass (= molecular weight)}$

Therefore,

Molarity = $\frac{amount of subs\tan ce (in gram) / molar mass (= molecular weight)}{solution volume (in liter)}$

For example, 1 M NaOH solution contains 1 mole in a liter of solution. 1 mole of NaOH is equal to 40 g of NaOH. In other words, 1 M NaOH solution contains 40 g of NaOH in a liter of solution. So to prepare 1M NaOH solution, 40 g of NaOH is dissolved in water to a final volume of 1 Liter.
