Molar concentration of a solute is the amount of the solute dissolved in per-unit volume of a solution. Molar concentration of a solute in a solution is usually called molarity, substance concentration or simply concentration. These concentration terms are used to determine the ratios of solute and solvent and to prepare accurate solutions. Finding molar concentration is simple but must be calculated with precaution.
