NaOH Dilution Calculator
Dilute a NaOH stock to a working molarity for titration and pH adjustment.
- 1Rearrange C₁V₁ = C₂V₂ for the unknown
V1 = 2.500 - 2Diluent to add = final volume − stock volume
50.00 − 2.500 = 47.50
🔒 100% client-side — your data is computed in the browser and never uploaded.

About NaOH Dilution Calculator
Dilute a NaOH stock to a working molarity for titration and pH adjustment. The calculation uses C₁V₁ = C₂V₂. The stakes: Getting a concentration right is the difference between a reaction that works and one that quietly fails. Weigh-out and dilution errors are among the most common — and most costly — mistakes at the bench. Watch out for: diluting concentrated acid by adding water to acid instead of acid to water; not bringing the solution to its final volume in a volumetric flask; forgetting to account for hydrate water in the molar mass. Because the calculation happens entirely client-side, you can use it offline and with confidential data, then cite the stable URL in your methods or teaching notes.

Frequently asked questions
Is this naoh dilution calculator free to use?+
Yes. It is completely free, needs no sign-up, and runs entirely in your browser — there are no usage limits.
What formula does it use?+
It uses C₁V₁ = C₂V₂ The full worked example is shown beneath the result so you can verify each step.
What are the most common mistakes here?+
In solution preparation, watch for: forgetting to account for hydrate water in the molar mass; confusing % w/v with % w/w; diluting concentrated acid by adding water to acid instead of acid to water; not bringing the solution to its final volume in a volumetric flask. This tool shows the working so you can catch these before they cost an experiment.
