Question

Which of the following concentration terms is specifically defined as the number of gram formula weights of an ionic solute present per litre of solution?

Answer: C

💡 Solution & Explanation

Formality ($F$) is analogous to molarity but is strictly used for ionic compounds (like NaCl) that do not exist as discrete molecules. It is defined as the weight of solute in grams divided by the formula weight, per litre of solution.
