I already am fine mixing stock solutions. Just had a few questions about mixing different chemicals together in one single stock solution. Let's just say I have 10 grams of kno3 and 10 grams of kh2po4. Each of those are mixed in separate containers of 500ml each. If I wanted to just use one 500ml container for both, do I just use 10 grams of both and mix it? Or do I mix in 5 grams of each since they are splitting the water volume? I know, a bit confusing. Maybe that's why I never did well in chemistry in college.
