Mole per Cubic Centimetermol/cm³
Source UnitA mole per cubic centimeter (mol/cm³) is a unit of concentration that quantifies the number of moles of a substance contained in one cubic centimeter of solution or mixture. It is a derived unit in the International System of Units (SI) and is commonly used in chemistry to express concentrations of solutes in solutions. The mole is defined as the amount of substance that contains the same number of entities (atoms, molecules, etc.) as there are atoms in 12 grams of carbon-12. Thus, concentration in mol/cm³ allows chemists to easily calculate reaction rates and yields in laboratory settings. This unit facilitates precise measurements, which are essential for stoichiometry and reaction dynamics in various chemical processes.
Current Use
The mole per cubic centimeter is widely used in various scientific and industrial fields, particularly in chemistry, biology, and pharmacology. In laboratories, it is crucial for preparing standard solutions, calculating reaction concentrations, and performing quantitative analysis. It is commonly encountered in fields such as environmental science, where it is used to measure pollutant concentrations in water or air samples. In the pharmaceutical industry, mol/cm³ is vital for determining drug concentrations in formulations and ensuring proper dosages. Academic institutions and research organizations utilize this measurement in experimental design and analysis. Countries worldwide, especially those following the SI system, such as the United States, Canada, and members of the European Union, frequently use this unit in educational and professional settings.
Fun Fact
The mole is one of the seven base units of the SI system.
Mole per Cubic Metermol/m³
Target UnitThe mole per cubic meter (mol/m³) is a derived unit of concentration in the International System of Units (SI) that quantifies the amount of substance (in moles) present in a cubic meter of volume. This unit is vital in chemistry, physics, and engineering, as it provides a clear measure of how much of a chemical species exists within a specified volume of space. For example, in a solution, it can indicate how many moles of solute are present in one cubic meter of solvent. This unit is crucial for calculations involving reactions, concentrations, and various applications in scientific research and industry.
Current Use
The mole per cubic meter is extensively used across various industries, including pharmaceuticals, environmental science, and chemical engineering. In pharmaceuticals, it helps in formulating drug concentrations for solutions and reactions. Environmental scientists utilize it to measure pollutant concentrations in air and water, which is crucial for assessing environmental health. Chemical engineers apply this unit in reactor design and optimization, ensuring adequate concentrations for chemical reactions. Countries like the United States, Germany, and Japan regularly employ the mole per cubic meter in scientific studies, regulatory frameworks, and educational institutions, ensuring that standardized measurements are maintained in research and industrial applications. Its widespread use emphasizes the importance of accurate concentration measures in both theoretical and applied sciences.
Fun Fact

Definition
A mole per cubic centimeter (mol/cm³) is a unit of concentration that quantifies the number of moles of a substance contained in one cubic centimeter of solution or mixture. It is a derived unit in the International System of Units (SI) and is commonly used in chemistry to express concentrations of solutes in solutions. The mole is defined as the amount of substance that contains the same number of entities (atoms, molecules, etc.) as there are atoms in 12 grams of carbon-12. Thus, concentration in mol/cm³ allows chemists to easily calculate reaction rates and yields in laboratory settings. This unit facilitates precise measurements, which are essential for stoichiometry and reaction dynamics in various chemical processes.
History & Origin
The concept of the mole was developed in the early 19th century as chemists began to quantify the amount of substances involved in chemical reactions. It was introduced by Avogadro's hypothesis, which stated that equal volumes of gases, at the same temperature and pressure, contain an equal number of molecules. This laid the groundwork for the mole as a fundamental unit of measurement in chemistry. The mole was officially adopted by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) in 1971 as a standard unit of measurement. The cubic centimeter as a unit of volume dates back to the metric system's inception in the late 18th century, where it is defined as a cube with sides of one centimeter.
Etymology: The term 'mole' comes from the Latin word 'moles', meaning a mass or heap, reflecting the unit's role in measuring large quantities of particles.

The mole per cubic meter emerged from the need to quantify concentrations in scientific fields such as chemistry and physics. The concept of measuring substances in terms of moles was formalized in the early 20th century, particularly through the work of chemists who sought standardized methods for expressing quantities of reactants and products in chemical reactions. The cubic meter, as a volume measure, was standardized as part of the metric system, which was developed during the French Revolution to promote uniformity in measurements across Europe.
Etymology: The term 'mole' derives from the German word 'Mol,' coined by Wilhelm Ostwald in the late 19th century, referring to a specific quantity of particles. The term 'cubic meter' combines 'cubic,' from Latin 'cubus' meaning 'cube,' and 'meter,' from Greek 'metron,' meaning 'measure.'
