  1. Diluting adds solvent, never solute. The amount you pipette is the amount you end with.

    nstock=nfinaln_{\text{stock}} = n_{\text{final}}
  2. Concentration is amount per volume, so amount is concentration times volume.

    n=C⋅Vn = C \cdot V
  3. Substitute on both sides.

    C1V1=C2V2C_1 V_1 = C_2 V_2
