Molarity Calculator

🧪 Solutions & Molarity. Use the Molarity formula to find molarity, solute, volume: pick the value you want, type the others, and the answer updates as you go.

M=nsoluteVsolutionM = \dfrac{n_{solute}}{V_{solution}}
Molarity0.5 mol/L

Pick the ○ next to the value you want to find, fill in the others, and it solves as you type.

Worked example

Find the molarity when Solute = 0.1 mol, Volume = 0.2 L.

Using M = nsoluteVsolution: Molarity = 0.5 mol/L.

Frequently asked questions

What is the formula for Molarity?

M = nsoluteVsolution.

What do the letters stand for, and what units are used?

Molarity in mol/L, Solute in mol, Volume in L.

How do you calculate molarity?

Put the values into M = nsoluteVsolution. For example, with Solute = 0.1 mol, Volume = 0.2 L, molarity = 0.5 mol/L.

Can I solve for a different value?

Yes. In the calculator above, pick the circle next to any value (molarity, solute, volume) and fill in the others: it rearranges the formula for you.
