We have assembled density data for a wide range of ionic liquids, including molten single and mixed alkali metal salts and ambient temperature chloroaluminate liquids. It is simple to calculate the molarities of the ions present in most cases. We observe a range from ~35 M for Li and Cl in liquid LiCl to ~1.5 M for the ions of a particular phosphonium salt with values of 3 6 M for a selection of chloroaluminate liquids. Within chloroaluminate systems, the anion concentrations are determined (a) by the AlCl3 mole fraction but also (b) by the density which varies with the cation. Thus if the anion is a reactant, its reactivity should depend on the complete constitution of the liquid.
