When you are doing dilutions the larger number is always the total final volume. The smaller number is the amount of the solute. The larger number minus the smaller number is the amount of the solvent. So a 1:5 or a 1 IN 5 dilution would be 1 part solute and 4 parts solvent to come to a total volume of 5.
When referencing ratios in mathematics 1:5 means 1 TO 5. The ratio is relative to the two items. For every 1 of the first you have 5 of the second.
It is critical if you are making dilutions to understand the difference as the two explanations are not interchangeable.

What is the slope of the line below (15)(-1-1)?
If you mean points of (1, 5) and (-1, -1) then the slope works out as 3
What is the slope of (52) and (13)?
If you mean points of (5, 2) and (1, 3) then the slope works out as -1/4
Which of the following is an equation of a line that passes through the point 0 5 and has a negative slope?
If you mean a slope of -1 then it is: y = -x+5
What is the slope of the line shown below ( 16) (-5-7)?
If you mean points of (1, 6) and (-5, -7) the slope works out as 13/6
What is concentration factor when dilution factor is 5?
Concentration factor, CF = 1/Dilution factor, DF if DF = 5 then CF = 1/5 CF = 0.2
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.
How do you make a 1 to 5 dilution?
To make a 1 to 5 dilution you mix 1 part of your substance with 4 parts water. ie: Mix 1 tablespoon of creamer with 4 tables spoons of coffee, and the coffee is 1/5 creamer now.
What does 0 percent dilution mean?
Means that there is no dilution.
What does dilution rate RTU mean?
dilution rate RTU
What does 10 to 1 dilution mean?
It is a mixture of 1 part of the active ingredient (by volume) to 10 parts of the solvent.
How do you prepare 100cm3 of 0.1M CoCl2 from a 0.5M solution of CoCl2?
So you need a 1 in 5 dilution (5x dilution i.e. 0.5/0.1), so 100/5 is 20ml stock diluted to 100ml

What is the dilution rate glyphosate weed killer?
5 parts vodka 1 part red bull in jelly cryystals
A colormertric method calls for the use of 0.1ml serum 5ml of reagent and 4.9ml of water what is the final dilution?
1:5
How much solution to 1 liter water 110 dilution?
You add 9.09ml of stock solution to a volumetric and make it up to 1 litre to get a 110 dilution
How do you make 5 fold dilution?
1 ml solute to 19 mls solvent. This gives a total volume of 20 (20 fold)
