<p>There is website tool for calculating the amount of solute needed for a given volume and concentration.   This can be <a href="https://www.physiologyweb.com/calculators/molar_solution_concentration_calculator.html" rel="nofollow">found here</a></p>

<p>I just put this together in python3</p>

<p>V2.0</p>

<pre><code>#Chemical solute calculator
print(&#34;Chemical solute calculator&#34;)
print(&#34; &#34;)
print(&#34;This program will ask you for some basic data and will then calculate how much solute is needed for a given volume and concentration&#34;)
print(&#34; &#34;)
print(&#34;1 mol solution is formula weight in 1 liter of water&#34;)
print(&#34;&#34;)
print(&#34; &#34;)
print(&#34;Mass is the molecular mass of the chemical solution you&#39;re making e.,g Copper Sulfate is 249g&#34;)
print(&#34; &#34;)
print(&#34;Volume the total solution volume in litres,  100ml is written as 0.100&#34;)
print(&#34; &#34;)
print(&#34;Concentration required in Mols&#34;)
print(&#34; &#34;)
mass = input (&#34;Mass in g: &#34;) 
#print(&#34;Solute requred&#34;)
volume = input(&#34;Volume in l: &#34;)
print((volume) + &#34; l&#34;)
conc = input (&#34;Required Concentration in M: &#34;) 

solute = float(mass) * float(volume) * float(conc)
print(&#34;Solute required: &#34;)
print(str(solute) + &#34; g&#34;)
print(&#34; &#34;)
print(&#34;Note:  This program is a guide, and you should double check calculations&#34;)

<p>I decided to write this to help calculate molar weights for chemistry.</p>

<p><img src="https://git.qoto.org/zleap/documents/-/raw/master/molweight.png" alt="molweight"></p>

<p>In essence you can enter the Mass of an element or molecular mass of a substance, compound etc, and this will help give you  molar weight, for example 0.5 mol.</p>

<p>It is, for example common to have different concentrations of an acid for example.  We know that <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_hydroxide" rel="nofollow">Sodium Hydroxide</a> has a weight of 40 because of the combined weight of its components:</p>

<p>$NaOH$ which equates to</p>

<p>Na = 22 +
O = 16 +
H = 1
= 39</p>

<p>Therefore 1 mol of NaOH = 39g which is of course equal to <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avogadro_constant" rel="nofollow">Avogadros constant</a> : $6.022 x 10^{23}$</p>

<p>Therefore 0.5 mol is roughly $39 \div 2 = 19.5g$</p>

<p>This program is <strong>NOT</strong> a substitute for proper calculation. You need to use more accurate values.  Values used are just a rough guide.</p>

<p>However it may be useful, for those quick calculations.</p>

<p>The program code base is taken from my Drake equation calculator I made a few weeks ago.</p>
