Dilution Calculator (C₁V₁ = C₂V₂) illustration

Dilution Calculator (C₁V₁ = C₂V₂)

Solves the dilution equation C₁V₁ = C₂V₂ for whichever term you choose, and reports how much solvent to add and the dilution factor.

Notes

  • C₁V₁ = C₂V₂ holds because the amount of solute does not change when you add solvent.
  • Concentrations must share a unit (both mol/L, both %, …); volumes must share a unit too. The field being solved for is ignored.
