Normality and Other Units of Concentration

Normality and Other Units of Concentration

There are many ways to measure concentration besides molarity. In this text we will discuss normality, specifically how it is different from molarity, as well as its application and equations used to find the normality of a substance. The overarching concept is the different aspects of concentrations in solutions and how these are expressed through units like percent, PPM, PPB, molarity, and normality.
