Normality is equal to molarity if only a single hydrogen is involved, which fortunately it is.

35% HCl contains 350 grams of HCl per 1000 grams (or ml) of water. What is desired is 10 ml of a 6 Normal (or molar) solution. The molecular weight of HCl is 36 grams/mole, so 6 normal would be 216 grams per 1000 mls. This is equivalent to 2.16 grams per 10 milliliters (1000 ml = 1 liter). 35% HCl contains 0.350 grams per ml, so one would need 6.17 ml to give 2.16 grams. The other 3.82 ml will be pure water.

Accordingly you can prepare as much quantity as you require.
