10-Fold Dilution Calculator

Formula

The formula to calculate the final concentration after a 10-fold dilution is:

\(C2 = \frac{C1}{D}\)

Where:

C2 is the final concentration after dilution
C1 is the initial concentration before dilution
D is the dilution factor (in this case, 10 for a 10-fold dilution)

Example Calculations

Example 1:

Initial Concentration (C1): 100 mg/L
Dilution Factor (D): 10

Calculation:

\(C2 = \frac{100}{10} = 10 \text{ mg/L}\)

Example 2:

Initial Concentration (C1): 50 mg/L
Dilution Factor (D): 10

Calculation:

\(C2 = \frac{50}{10} = 5 \text{ mg/L}\)
