The SI unit is mol/m3. However, more commonly the unit mol/L is used. A solution of concentration 1 mol/L is also denoted as "1 molar" (1 M).
1 mol/L = 1 mol/dm3 = 1 mol dm-3 = 1 M = 1000 mol/m3.
An SI prefix is often used to denote concentrations. Commonly used units are listed in the table hereafter:
Name Abbreviation Concentration Concentration (SI unit)
millimolar mM 10-3 mol/dm3 100 mol/m3
micromolar µM 10-6 mol/dm3 10-3 mol/m3
nanomolar nM 10-9 mol/dm3 10-6 mol/m3
picomolar pM 10-12 mol/dm3 10-9 mol/m3
femtomolar fM 10-15 mol/dm3 10-12 mol/m3
attomolar aM 10-18 mol/dm3 10-15 mol/m3
zeptomolar zM 10-21 mol/dm3 10-18 mol/m3
yoctomolar yM[2] 10-24 mol/dm3
(1 particle per 1.6 L) 10-21 mol/m3
