A
Density (g/cm^3)
B
Pressure (atm)
C
Molarity (mol/L)
D
Boiling point (°C)
Verified step by step guidance
1
Understand that concentration refers to the amount of solute present in a given quantity of solvent or solution.
Recognize that common ways to express concentration include molarity (mol/L), molality (mol/kg), mass percent, and mole fraction.
Identify that density (g/cm^3) is a physical property related to mass and volume, but it does not directly express concentration of solute in solution.
Note that pressure (atm) and boiling point (°C) are physical properties influenced by concentration but are not direct measures of concentration themselves.
Conclude that molarity, defined as the number of moles of solute per liter of solution, is a standard and direct way to express concentration.
