Example problem:

x = concentration in 4mL

1:2000 ratio

2000x =concentration in stock solution

C1V1=C2V2

x*4mL=2000x*V2 --> divide by 2000x on both sides

x*4mL/2000x=2000x*V2/2000x

4mL/2000=V2

2mL/1000=V2

2uL=V2

take 2 microLitres of the stock solution and pipette it into the container. Fill container to 4 milliLitres

Divide by 200 the concentration of the solution. The result will be the 200th unit of original solution. Take this unit and add 199 units of solvent to complete.

To get a 1-fold dilution you mix it with an equal volume of solvent (usually water). So for example, to dilute 100 cm3 1-fold you would add 100 cm3 of water.
