[PLUG-TALK] Chemistry help needed

[nick]

This should come in handy: http://abacus.bates.edu/~ganderso/biology/resources/dilutions.html#percenttomolarity

In my chemistry classes, we almost never made solutions by percentage, almost always by molarity. I'd convert the % solution to molarity and then use that and the formula weight of NaCl to get the actual amount of salt to add to whatever volume of water you decide you will be using.
