CONCENTRATING 1 POWDER IN A 2-INGREDIENT MIX
I have a question about needing very little (like in minute quantity - why there's a need to start with maybe 1 gram to measure accurately) of 1 constituent, and much more of a second (both dry powders - ratio is 1 : 150000). So, I would like to increase the initial mass of the lesser ingredient (to 1 gram, since it's actually in the microgram range), along with an initial addition of the greater ingredient (what would be ideal, considering final ratio ?). Then to mix it , and take of this mix to which I want to add more of the greater constituent - progressively, until I reach my desired ratio. PLEASE HELP with the formula / calculations.

If the ratio is 1:150000, then if you have 1 g of compound one, you need 150 kg of compound 2. Are sure to do this?

Calculate the mass of the greater ingredient needed to achieve the desired ratio:
Mass of greater ingredient = 1 gram * (150000 - 1) = 149999 grams
Mass of greater ingredient = 1 gram * (150000 - 1) = 149999 grams

I'd want to see the lesser ingredient's bulk increased and the greater ingredient's mass added

Re: CONCENTRATING 1 POWDER IN A 2-INGREDIENT MIX
You want to start with 1 gram of the lesser ingredient and an initial amount of the greater ingredient. Since you're aiming for a ratio of 1:150,000bitlife, you'll need to calculate how much of the greater ingredient to add initially.
