If the solute isn't very soluble, the solution can be saturated and still have very little solute in it, so it would be dilute.

Can a saturated solution be a dilute solution?

Yes, just remove some of the solvent. If you want to see this for yourself, mix a little salt and water together. Then leave it stand so most of the water evaporates. You have saturated a dilute solution.


What is the difference between concentrated solution and dilute solution?

dilute is a solution far from being saturated concentrated is a solution that has so much solute that it is relatively close to being saturated


Explain how a solution can be both dilute and saturated?

If the solute isn't very soluble, the solution can be saturated and still have very little solute in it, so it would be dilute.


Is a saturated solution necessarily a dilute solution?

A saturated solution contains as much pof the dissolved material as possible. A dilute solution is almost the opposite, it has only a trace of the dissolved material and the solution could contain much more.


What is saturated dilute and concentrated?

a saturated solution is a solution that cannot dissolve any more substances a concentrated solution is a solution that has a lot of a specific substance in it


When saturated solutions are they usually become unsaturated?

No, the dilute solutions of highly water soluble compounds are unsaturatd as solution of NaCl but dilute solution of AgCl or BaSO4 are saturated because they are very little soluble in water.


Is dead sea saturated dilute or concentrated solution?

The Dead Sea is a saturated solution because it has an excessive amount of salt at its bottom.


Using particle theory to explain how a solution becomes saturated?

how will you use the particle theory to explain why a saturated solution at 30 degreecelsius can become dilute at 70degree Celsius


How is osmosis related to solution types?

We define Osmosis as the passage of water from a dilute solution via a membrane which is semi permeable to a more concentrate solution. It means that Semi permeable membrane is a very thin layer of material which allows some molecule to pass through them and prevent some molecule from pass through them. These molecules are decided by the type of solution. Generally, the membrane only allows movement of H2O molecules. So, if on one side is a saturated solution of something while on the other side is a dilute solution, the movement of molecules will be from both the directions but net result will be from saturated to dilute solution.


Similarities between concentrated solution and dilute solution?

they both have to mix with water


When the colour of KMnO4 gradually fades away then the compound is whether saturated or unsaturated?

You think probable to a dilute, unsaturated solution.
