"Concentration"Concentration == ("Moles of solute")/("Volume of solution")Moles of soluteVolume of solution

Explanation:

If we have 1.001.00 kgkg of water, there is 1.001.00 LL of water. (Note that volume would not change substantially upon dissolution of the salt).

Thus, "Molarity"Molarity == ((174*cancelg)/(58.44*cancelg*mol^-1))/(1.00*L) ~~ 3 mol*L^-1
