Rafik Karaman

Dear Acapman,

If I understood your question correctly the answer will be:

Weigh 97 grams of Cerium dioxide and 3 grams of Copper dioxide and mix them with your vehicle up to 100 mL. This makes the concentrations of Cerium dioxide 97%w/v and Copper dioxide 3%w/v.

Hoping this will be helpful,

Rafik

Thanks Mr Rafik Karaman.

I think it is better to first check their solubility in water then keep the staichiometric ration as 97:3.
