Molarity Definition and 116 Threads

I've never had a good understanding of this. Say I am dissolving 20g sodium chloride into 1L of water. Is the only way to theoretically predict the final volume of solution to consult density tables? edit: I realize this isn't a practical situation, and that typically you are making a solution...

The answer given is 524*10^4. The process used is by adding/subtracting the values given. But my concern is that isn't molar conductivity an intensive property? And it hence can't be added. So how is it added and the answer obtained.

I'm trying to verify the final molarity of my solution. I'm adding 40.69 lb of 90% anhydrous KOH to 148.43 (561.86L) gallons of water . I get a final molarity of 0.52. The report I'm reading arrives at a molarity of 0.78. Is this an error? Thanks to anyone who can provide the calcs.

In my textbook it is given that Molarity is represented by M, and its formula is-- Molarity(M)= No. of moles of solute/Volume of solution in L the unit of Molarity is mol/l which is also written as M. Now what does this mean ? does it mean --> Molarity is denoted by "M" and it's unit is also...

so is an acid like HCl, is it basically these HCl ions that are "dissolved" or "infused" into water and form an acid? So what I'm saying is HCl by itself isn't possible and it's only possible in the dissolved form or aqueas form. This would make sense because as far as I know an acid or base...
