#"Molarity"="Moles of solute"/"Volume of solution"#

Explanation:

And thus molarity has units of #mol*L^-1#.

On t'other hand, #"Molality"="Moles of solute"/"Kilograms of solvent"#, and thus has units of #mol*kg^-1#.

At low aqueous concentrations, molality is equivalent to molarity. Molality is used for high end calculations in that it is independent of solution density, and thus does not vary with temperature.
