Unit Explanations
Mole per Cubic Metermol/m³
Source 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
The mole is one of the seven base units in the International System of Units (SI).

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.
History & Origin
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.'
