Choose the operation you need. Each tool explains what data you must enter, what the result means, and what mathematical assumptions it uses.

The tools are intentionally separated.

Do not use their results to mix sodium chlorite with HCl or any other acid. That reaction can dangerously release chlorine dioxide gas.

Dilution of CDS concentrations

Calculate the volume of original CDS and water to obtain a lower final concentration.

Use it when: you know the initial ppm, the desired ppm and the final volume.

Sodium chlorite solution

Calculate the approximate amount of water from the purity and mass of a powder product.

Use it when: The label indicates purity in %, you have a mass in grams and you are looking for a lower % m/m.

ppm ⇄ g/L
Units

Concentration converter

Converts between ppm, mg/L, g/L, % m/v and % m/m explaining when it is necessary to know the density.

Use it when: you have a correct concentration but you need to express it in another unit.

Independent dilution of HCl

Apply the dilution equation when both concentrations are expressed in mol/L.

Use it when: an already approved professional procedure specifies C1, C2 and final volume.
