Mole, Mole per Liter, and Molar: A Primer on SI and Related Units for Chemistry Students
George Gorin
Chemistry Department, Oklahoma State University, Stillwater, OK 74078
Cover
January 2003
Vol. 80 No. 1
p. 103
Abstract
This review provides historical background on the terms mole, mole per liter, and molar as it discusses their status with respect to the SI system of measurement. Currently the prevalent use of mole per liter and molar does not conform with the recommendations which apply to SI units in general. The article suggests an approach for dealing with this problem in teaching.
