Amount of Water Calculations
As an exception to the rule above, accessory chemicals are used in calculation total volume of solution in the tank. Total capacity of tank - total ounces of all chemicals = total amount of water used (ounces)
Embalming Fluid Dilution Calculation
C x V = C' x V'
Prepare 1 gallon of a 2% arterial solution using a 25 index fluid
C x V = C' x V' (Index) x (Volume of FLUID) = (Strength of SOLUTION) x (total volume) C: Concentration in the bottle: 25% index fluid V: Volume in the bottle: V (it's what we need to solve for) C': Concentration in the tank: 2% V': Volume in the tank: 1 gallon, 128 ounces 25% x V = 2% x 128 ounces 25%V / 25% = V 256% / 25% = 10.24 ounces V = 10.24 ounces
