How do you make 1N HCL from concentrated HCL?

Answer:
You must take 88,8 mL concentrated HCL and fill up to 1000 mL with distilated water. (REMEMBER: ALWAYS ADD ACID TO WATER! - add 88.8mL to 900mL water and dilute to final volume = 1L)


The simplest and still pretty accurate answer would be based on the following things. The concentrated HCl means it is 12M. You can simpy use M1*V1=M2*V2 formula to calculate what You are looking for. In this case You do not have to worry switching from normal solution to molarity since 1M is = to 1 N for HCl.

Using M1*V1=M2*V2, where M stands for molarity and V for volume:

12M *X(unknown volume) ml (in mililiters) = 1 N (or 1M) * 1000 ml

1000 ml*M /12 M = 83.33(3) ml
