Mine are just in alphabetical order.
In my mind there are so dilute and essentially innocuous that alphabetically works fine.
I have about 100 made up dilute solutions, most are only 250ml bottles with only Sodium Chloride, Copper sulphate and silver Nitrate in bottles greater then 500mls. They are all 1M or less.
Possibly acidified potassium dichromate is the nastiest and that is a 125ml bottle.
Storage of working solutions.
Re: diluted chemical storage
same here fibreweb. I have removed the sodium hydroxides and the sulfuric acids and am just left with indicators and under 1m solutions.

Re: diluted chemical storage
I forgot to say all the dilute acids are in one cupboard in the prep room, these are only 1M, and the alkali's in another.
The concentrations over 1M are in the appropriate classes in the chem store.
I was just looking at my list of solutions and the only things that are above 0.1M are Barium Chloride, Calcium Nitrate,
Copper Sulphate, Iron Nitrate, Lead nitrate, Mag sulphate, sodium sulphate, Tin Chloride and Zinc sulphate and these are 1M and then only 500mls max.
