#"Molarity"# is a measure of #"concentration"#...

Explanation:

And what is #"concentration"#...? According to a dictionary this is the...#"the relative amount of a particular substance contained"# #"within a solution or mixture or in a particular volume of space."#

And more simply this is the amount of stuff in solution...where we use molar units for the amount of stuff...

And so #"molarity"="moles of solute"/"volume of solution"#

And here the concentration of #HCl# is #6.0*mol*L^-1#...i.e. in every LITRE of solution there is a #6.0*mol# quantity, i.e. a #218.7*g# MASS of #HCl# solute....
