Molarity to Dilution Calculator.
Calculates the volume of stock solution needed to prepare a diluted solution of desired molarity and volume.
Ihre Eingaben
So funktioniert es
- 1
Enter the stock concentration (C1) in molarity.
- 2
Enter the desired final concentration (C2) in molarity.
- 3
Enter the final volume (V2) you want to prepare.
- 4
The calculator computes the volume of stock solution (V1) needed using C1×V1 = C2×V2.
v2 * (c2 / c1)Häufig gestellte Fragen
What is the dilution formula?
The formula is C1×V1 = C2×V2, where C1 and V1 are the concentration and volume of the stock solution, and C2 and V2 are the concentration and volume of the final diluted solution.
How do I prepare a dilution?
Measure the calculated volume of stock solution (V1) and add it to a volumetric flask. Then add solvent (usually water) up to the final volume (V2) and mix well.
What if my stock concentration is lower than the desired concentration?
If C1 is less than C2, the formula would give a V1 greater than V2, which is impossible. You need a more concentrated stock solution or a different approach.

Formeln
Die Mathematik hinter diesem Rechner, aufgeschrieben, damit Sie das Ergebnis überprüfen können.
Dilution equation
The product of concentration and volume remains constant when diluting a solution.
Example:
Input: C1 = 1 M, C2 = 0.1 M, V2 = 100 mL
Calculation: V1 = (0.1 × 100) / 1 = 10 mL
Result: Take 10 mL of stock and add solvent to 100 mL.
Anwendungsfälle im Alltag
Wo diese Berechnung im täglichen Leben vorkommt.
Preparing standard solutions
Dilute a concentrated stock to a specific molarity for experiments.
Example: Make 500 mL of 0.2 M HCl from 2 M HCl.
Serial dilutions
Create a series of lower concentrations by successive dilutions.
Example: Dilute 1 M to 0.1 M, then 0.1 M to 0.01 M.
Buffer preparation
Adjust buffer concentration to desired molarity for assays.
Example: Dilute 10× buffer to 1× working solution.
Tipps und häufige Fehler
Tips
- Always add acid to water, not water to acid, when diluting strong acids.
- Use volumetric flasks for accurate final volumes.
- Mix thoroughly after dilution to ensure homogeneity.
- Double-check units: ensure concentrations are in the same units (M) and volumes in the same units (mL).
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Using the formula incorrectly by swapping C1 and C2.
- Forgetting to account for the volume of stock when adding solvent.
- Assuming volumes are additive when mixing different solutions.
Annahmen und Einschränkungen
- Use the stated inputs and units.
- Results are estimates for planning and education.
- Check measurements and source data before making an important decision.
