Expert Solution
Step 1

Serial Dilution- In this process, concentration used to decrease by same factor in each step.

In this dilution, dilution factors for each step used to multiply.

The dilution or Dilution factor will be the division of initial volume by the final volume.

D= Vi/Vf

For instance,  If there is an addition of a 1ml to 0.05 ml of diluent to get 20 ml of solution.

D= Vi/Vf= 1ml /0.05ml= 1/0.05 = 20 ml
