The concentration of 1 mole PER litre; 1 mole being Avogadro's number (6.02 x 1023) of molecules, which is equivalent in mass to the sum of the atomic masses (in grams) of the constituent atoms; e.g. 1 M NaCl is a concentration of 58.45 g/l (Na = 22.99, Cl = 35.46).Sub-molecular_biology_glossary?id=1906&op=detail">molar concentrations are: millimolecular_biology_glossary?id=1906&op=detail">molar (mM) 10-3 mol/l; micromolecular_biology_glossary?id=1906&op=detail">molar (M) 10-6mol/l; nanomolecular_biology_glossary?id=1906&op=detail">molar (nM) 10-9 mol/l; picomolecular_biology_glossary?id=1906&op=detail">molar (pM) 10-12 mol/l; femtomolecular_biology_glossary?id=1906&op=detail">molar (fM) 10-15 mol/l; attomolecular_biology_glossary?id=1906&op=detail">molar (aM) 10-18 mol/l; zeptomolecular_biology_glossary?id=1906&op=detail">molar (zM) 10-21 mol/l.
