Molar Concentrations

The mole concentration of a solution is the amount of solute in moles dissolved in each 1 dm3.A 0.2moldm-3 solution has 0.2 moles of solute dissolved in 1 dm3 of solution. The mass concentration of a solution is the mass of solute in grams dissolved in each 1 dm3.A 0.2gdm-3 solution has 0.2 g of solute dissolved in 1 dm3 of solution.moles = concentration (moldm-3) x volume (dm3)

n = C V

To convert from moldm-3 to gdm-3 multiply by the Mr.
