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.
To make an 8-fold dilution, you would mix 1 part of the substance you want to dilute with 7 parts of the diluent (usually water or buffer solution). This results in a total of 8 parts, with 1 part being the original substance and 7 parts being the diluent. This dilution reduces the concentration of the original substance by a factor of 8.
It is a mixture of 1 part of the active ingredient (by volume) to 10 parts of the solvent.

-4 x 5 = -20 and -4 + 5 = 1.
To make a 1 to 100 dilution from a 1 to 10 dilution, first take 1 part of the 1 to 10 dilution and add it to 9 parts of diluent (such as water or buffer). This results in a 1 to 100 dilution because the original 1 to 10 dilution is already diluted, and further diluting it by 10 times achieves the desired concentration. Ensure thorough mixing to achieve uniformity.
Concentration factor, CF = 1/Dilution factor, DF if DF = 5 then CF = 1/5 CF = 0.2
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.
1 ml solute to 19 mls solvent. This gives a total volume of 20 (20 fold)
You add 9.09ml of stock solution to a volumetric and make it up to 1 litre to get a 110 dilution
To make a 1 to 100 dilution, start by taking 1 part of the concentrated solution and add it to 99 parts of a diluent (usually water or a buffer). For example, if you use 1 mL of the concentrated solution, mix it with 99 mL of the diluent. Ensure thorough mixing to achieve a uniform dilution. This results in a final solution that is 1% of the original concentration.
To make a 500 dilution, add 1 part of the substance you are diluting to 499 parts of water. For example, if you have 1 mL of the substance, you would add 499 mL of water to make a total volume of 500 mL for the dilution.
The recommended dilution ratio for using 5 acetic acid vinegar as a cleaning solution is 1:1, meaning equal parts vinegar and water should be mixed together.
take 1 ml, add 9 ml water.
To make a 1000-fold dilution, take 1 part of your concentrated solution and mix it with 999 parts of a diluent, such as water or buffer. For example, if you start with 1 mL of the concentrated solution, you would add it to 999 mL of the diluent. Mix thoroughly to ensure homogeneity. This results in a dilution where the original solution is reduced to one-thousandth of its initial concentration.
The percent dilution of essential oils varies depending on their intended use. Common dilutions include 1-3% for topical applications, which equates to about 1-3 drops of essential oil per teaspoon (5 ml) of carrier oil. For children, the elderly, or those with sensitive skin, a lower dilution of 0.5-1% is often recommended. Always consider the specific oil and its safety guidelines when determining dilution.
