💧 What is a Dilution Calculator?

A Dilution Calculator helps you determine how to dilute a solution to reach a desired concentration. It uses the simple equation C₁V₁ = C₂V₂, where concentration and volume before and after dilution are related.

⚖️ Formula

C₁ × V₁ = C₂ × V₂

📘 Example

If you have a 2 M NaCl solution and want to prepare 1 M NaCl using 100 mL of the final solution:

V₁ = (C₂ × V₂) ÷ C₁ = (1 × 100) ÷ 2 = 50 mL

You need 50 mL of 2 M NaCl diluted with 50 mL of water to make 100 mL of 1 M NaCl solution.

✅ Why Use It?

• Quickly prepare lab solutions at the right concentration.
• Avoid manual mistakes in dilution calculations.
• Essential for chemistry labs, pharmaceuticals, and biology research.
