SUMMARY

A 1/10 dilution of a 10 mg/ml solution results in a final concentration of 1 mg/ml. This is calculated using the dilution formula c1v1=c2v2, where c1 is the initial concentration (10 mg/ml), v1 is the initial volume, c2 is the final concentration (1 mg/ml), and v2 is the final volume. The formula confirms that the dilution process effectively reduces the concentration by a factor of ten.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of dilution concepts
  • Familiarity with the formula c1v1=c2v2
  • Basic knowledge of concentration units (mg/ml)
  • Ability to perform simple arithmetic calculations
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the principles of solution dilution
  • Learn about preparing serial dilutions in laboratory settings
  • Explore the applications of concentration calculations in chemistry
  • Study the impact of dilution on solution properties
USEFUL FOR

Chemistry students, laboratory technicians, and anyone involved in preparing chemical solutions or conducting experiments requiring precise concentration measurements.

If you prepare 1/10 dilution of 10mg/ml solution, what is the final concentration of the solution?..help me with c1v1=c2v2
 
Physics news on Phys.org
A 1/10 dilution of a 10 mg/ml solution has concentration (1/10)(10)=
1 mg/ml.

Okay, if you want to use that formula, you can.

Out of the 4 numbers c1, v1, c2, and v2, which ones do you know? Write down their values.
