How to Use the Dilution Equation

This process is known as dilution. We can relate the concentrations and volumes before and after a dilution using the following equation: M₁V₁ = M₂V₂ where M₁ and V₁ represent the molarity and volume of the initial concentrated solution and M₂ and V₂ represent the molarity and volume of the final diluted solution. In this video Dr. J will go over using the dilution equation. Check the playlist for more videos to help you with Chemistry.

You’re going to learn how to read! Well you are going to learn how to read CHEMISTRY. In this unit you will learn the basics which will help you the rest of the semester. MATH is intertwined in Chemistry. The most important word to know for this unit is STOICHIOMETRY. Stoichiometry is basically about relationships between things. If I want to make a Big Mac I know I need 2 beef patties and 3 sesame seed buns. I can’t use 5 buns because that’s not a Big Mac. I can’t use just one beef patty because that’s still not a Big Mac. It's a quarter pounder with an extra bun. The relationship between buns and patties is key and that is how we use those same relationships (Stoichiometry) in chemistry by showing the relationships between chemical compounds that form reactions to make something we may use or need. We will cover: empirical formula, balancing chemical equations, and limiting reactants I suggest reviewing basic algebra and getting a calculator as soon as possible.
