Hi Ana,
Add 10.18ml of 18% Ammonia and make up to 1,000ml and you will have a 0.1M Solution.
Cheers
Dino

Hi Ana! If you do a search on here for calculator or something like that, there are several websites available that people have recommended where you plug your numbers in and it tells you what you need. Might be helpful for next time when you don't have time to go through all the calculations :)
