Title: High Concentrations
Post by: Albert on October 31, 2006, 06:18:59 PM

Just wondering: what is the highest molarity you have ever come across? (In a real situation, not in theory).

Excellent!

There has many a pub-based heated argument amongst a few of us in college about calculating the molarity of pure water amongst other things ;D
