The wording is important here.

If it is a 2 *in* 5 dilution, then the scientist would need 200 ml of concentrate. The best way would be to take a graduated cylinder, put about 200 ml of solvent into the cylinder. Then put in the 200 ml of concentrate. Then add enough additional solvent to make a total of 500 ml. Mix, then pour it into a labeled and dated bottle, and screw on the lid.

If it is a 2 *to* 5 dilution, then you need 2/7ths concentrate, and 5/7ths solvent. One seventh of 500 ml is about 71.43, so you would need 142.86 ml of concentrate, and fill the rest with solvent until the total is 500 ml.

Definition of dilution and dilution factor?

In chemistry and biology, the dilution factor is the total number of unit volumes in which the material is dissolved. As I understand it, the dilution refers to the dilution ratio. If you add 1 part of something to 4 parts of something else, the dilution ratio is 1 to 4. The dilution factor counts all the parts and expresses the same thing as 1 out of 5.
