Does Molarity Increase or Decrease With Temperature

Answer: It is common knowledge that the molarity of a solution varies with the volume of the solution. It is a well-established fact that the volume of a solution will expand as its temperature rises because volume and temperature are directly proportional to one another. As a result, the molarity of a substance has an inverse relationship with temperature. When the temperature is raised, there will be an accompanying increase in the volume of the solution. This, in turn, will be accompanied by a reduction in the number of moles contained within one litre (since the amount of solute remains the same throughout). As a result, it is common knowledge that the molarity will lessen when the temperature rises
