when there is a general chemistry question that says like 2 M of something, what's M ? I think there are two different looking M that says molarity and molar mass or something...-_-; it's been so long time since i took general chemistry and I forgot which M is which.

M=mol/L
m=mol/kg of solvent
MM=molar mass

oh...so it's matter of whether it's capitalized or not...
hm...
but I think there were 2 different kinds of M and they both look like capital M. But if u watched DragonBallZ, there is M on Majin Boo's Head, and i think that's one of the M I am talking about ... -_-;
