Making dilute solutions

To prepare the solution, the specified output quantity is dissolved with stirring in a liter of water.
For the preparation of concentrated solutions of a multiple of the amount given in a first approximation may be used. Example: To produce a 6 molar nitric acid, you can use three times the amount for the two molar solution, ie three times 140 ml of a 65% nitric acid.

Solution to be prepared | Output quantity for 1 liter diluted solution
% by weight Density (g/ml) mol/l | % by weight ml
acetic acid 12 1,01 2 | 100 115
nitric acid 12 1,07 2 | 65 140
hydrochloric acid 7 1,03 2 | 36 165
sulfuric acid 9,5 1,06 1 | 96 56
ammonia 3,5 0,98 1 | 30 115
Potassium hydroxide solution 10,5 1,09 2 | 113g solid KOH
caustic soda 7,5 1,08 2 | 80g solid NaOH
