Unit of Molarity is mol/L.
Molality: It is the number of moles of the solute dissolved in 1 kg of the solvent. It is represented by the symbol ‘m’. It is given as :
m = Moles of solute / Weight of solvent in kg
Unit of molality is mol/kg.
Normality: Normality is number of gram equivalents of the solute dissolved per litre of solution. It is denoted by N.
