1 in 5 dilution example

Simple Dilution (Dilution Factor Method) For example, a 1:5 dilution (verbalize as "1 to 5" dilution) entails combining 1 unit volume of diluent (the material to be diluted) + 4 unit volumes of the solvent medium (hence, 1 + 4 = 5 = dilution factor)

SIMPLE DILUTIONS: Let's look at an example of a 1:5 dilution A 1:5 dilution really means - one part, in a total of 5 parts If 1ml is added to 4mls, you are creating

For example, a 1:5 dilution (verbalize as "1 to 5" dilution) entails combining 1 unit volume of solute (the material to be diluted) + 4 unit volumes of the solvent
