Convert Moles per cubic decimetre to Moles per litre
Convert Moles per cubic decimetre (mol/dm³) to Moles per litre (mol/L) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
mol/L = mol/dm³ × 1
About Moles per cubic decimetre
The mole per cubic decimetre (mol/dm³) equals 1 000 mol/m³, numerically identical to mol/L. It is the preferred notation in UK A-level and university chemistry curricula and in IUPAC recommendations, where dm³ emphasises the SI volume unit. 1 mol/dm³ = 1 mol/L = 1 M = kmol/m³.
About Moles per litre
The mole per litre (mol/L, M - molar) equals 1 000 mol/m³, the most widely used concentration unit in chemistry and biochemistry. Stock solutions, enzyme substrates, and reagent preparation all use mol/L. Concentrated HCl ≈12 mol/L; saturated NaCl ≈6.1 mol/L; sea water NaCl ≈0.47 mol/L. 1 mol/L = mol/dm³ = kmol/m³.
