Dilution Processes and Calculations
The second page delves into the specifics of dilution procedures and related calculations, providing practical guidance for laboratory work.
Highlight: The fundamental principle of dilution maintains that the amount of solute remains constant while the volume changes.
Example: The dilution equation Cmm × Vm = Cmf × Vf (where m represents mother solution and f represents daughter solution) is used to calculate concentrations and volumes.
Definition: The dilution factor indicates how many times a solution is diluted, representing the ratio between initial and final concentrations.
Vocabulary: Mother solution (solution mère) refers to the initial concentrated solution, while daughter solution (solution fille) is the resulting diluted solution.
