  "term": "Stock solution",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "A concentrated solution of a chemical substance prepared for later dilution to a working concentration. This approach minimizes weighing errors and reduces the number of individual preparations needed for a series of experiments. Stock solutions are typically stored in volumetric flasks or other sealed containers to maintain their concentration over time.",
