Question

Per litre solution.

anonymous · Answer

Solubility is defined as : Solubility is the property of a solid, liquid, or gaseous chemical substance called solute to dissolve in a solid, liquid, or gaseous solvent to form a homogeneous solution of the solute in the solvent.

thats for good soluble substances, but for bad soluble substances my book says its per liter of solution as you say.

"mol/L" are the units of molarity, so L of solution.
