Concentration terms like molarity and normality are defined per unit volume of solution. Since the volume of a liquid changes with temperature (thermal expansion/contraction), these values change slightly with temperature even though the actual amount of solute present is unchanged.
By contrast:
- Molality () = moles of solute per kilogram of solvent (a mass-based ratio).
- Mole fraction () = moles of one component divided by total moles of all components (a ratio of amounts of substance). …
