Molarity, Mass & Volume Online Calculator — Solve for Concentration, Volume, or Mass

Given any two of concentration, volume, and mass, solve for the third. Supports mM/µM/nM and mg/µg/ng.

The core relationship used in solution preparation:

Mass (g) = Concentration (mol/L) × Volume (L) × Molecular Weight (g/mol)

Know any two of the three variables and solve for the third. The tool handles unit conversion automatically — no more counting decimal places.

FAQ

Why is the prepared concentration off despite following the calculation?

The most common cause is using the wrong molecular weight. When the reagent is a hydrochloride, sodium salt, or hydrate, its actual formula weight differs from that of the parent compound. Always use the FW printed on the bottle label.

How do I convert a protein concentration from mg/mL to M?

You need an accurate molecular weight. For recombinant proteins, the theoretical MW can be calculated from the amino acid sequence, but the actual MW of glycosylated proteins will be higher than this theoretical value.
