In chemistry, the M in a chemical context often stands for molar, which is a fundamental unit in chemistry that describes the amount of a substance. Specifically, one mole of any substance contains Avogadro's number of entities (atoms, molecules, ions, etc.), which is approximately 6.022 x 10^23 entities per mole. The concept of molar is crucial for understanding stoichiometry, which is the calculation of chemical reactions based on the amounts of reactants and products.

It is used as a unit and stands for mole per litre. The IUPAC gold book writes: amount concentration, Amount of a constituent divided by the volume of the mixture. Also called amount-of-substance concentration, substance concentration (in clinical chemistry) and in older literature molarity.
