Molarity is designated by the symbol M preceded by a number that represents the number of moles of the designated solute contained in an amount of the designated solvent that is sufficient to prepare 1 liter of solution.
The following definition is simpler : Molarity is the number of moles of solute dissolved in one liter of solution. (http://dl.clackamas.edu/ch105-04/molarity.htm )
Is the definition posted at 0/F more precise/scientific or too complicated ?
