Line 4: Line 4:
* 1 M (mol/l) = ''2'' N for an acid that releases 2 protons*, e.g. H<sub>2</sub>SO<sub>4</sub> (*diprotic)
* 1 M (mol/l) = ''2'' N for an acid that releases 2 protons*, e.g. H<sub>2</sub>SO<sub>4</sub> (*diprotic)


By the way, ''molarity M'' is also a non-standard unit[http://physics.nist.gov/cuu/Units/checklist.html]. Expressing this explicitly as mol/L or mol/m<sup>3</sup> is clearer to reader less used to biological customs.
