Dilution

Dilutions are performed by chemists every day in the laboratory setting. The chemists can either use a pipet or micropipette to ensure that the correct portion of solution is added. You have also diluted substances. Whether you were preparing ice tea, or refilling a cleaning bottle, you had to dilute each properly. View this presentation to learn how to solve dilution problems.
