In 2-3 sentences, describe howto do a serial dilution of a 1x 10-3Msolution to obtain 1 L of a 1x 10-9M solution. (Include necessary volumes and equipment.)

Solutions

Expert Solution

Before dilution                                               after dilution

M1 = 1*10^-3 M                                               M2 = 1*10^-9 M

V1 =                                                                  V2 = 1L

                 M1V1   = M2V2

                      V1   = M2V2/M1

                             = 1*10^-9 *1/1*10^-3    = 1*10^-6 L

Design a serial dilution to achieve a final dilution of 10^-4 such that there will be enough solution remaining in each dilution to use for an assay that requires 100 mL of sample in triplicate. Remember that better accuracy is obtained with relatively large dilutions if the total dilution is made from a series of smaller dilutions rather than one large dilution.
