🗑
Molality   concentration of a solution expressed in moles of solute per kilogram of solvent  
🗑
Dilution   process of reducing the concentration of a solute and a solution usually simply by mixing with more solvent  
🗑
Titration   controlled addition and measurement of the amount of a solution of known concentration required to react completely with a measured amount of a solution of unknown concentration  
🗑
Concentration   measure of the amount of solute in a given amount of solcent or solution  
🗑
