Solution concentration and Stoichiometry

Molar Concentration of Solutions
The concentration of a solution is defined as the amount of solute dissolved in a given quantity of
solvent or solution
...
This material focuses on Molarity
...

Mathematically,
Molarity =

The unit for Molarity is mole/L
...
We then simply
determine the ratio of the number of moles of solute to the volume of the solution

The key point to remember is that in dilution, the number of moles of solute remains the same since
only the quantity of the solvent is increased
