Question 440976: I have 20 ml of clove oil. Using all of it, I want to make a 2% solution in water. If there are 3785 milliliters to a gallon, how much water do I add to the 20 ml? Also, can you convert the added water amount to ounces?

If you have 20 ml of clove oil; to make a 2% solution you need 20/.02=1000 ml
Since you already have 20ml of oil, you need 980ml of water to get a 2% solution.
980/3785mls=.259 gls. of water to be added,which equals 33.14 fl.oz..
