by the addition of more solute.
In order to increase the concentration of a solution, you must add more solute or remove some solvent. You can remove solvent through evaporation.
Dilute solution: low concentration of the solute in the solvent Concentrated solution: high concentration of the solute in the solvent
When more solvent is added to a solution to decrease it's concentration the action is known as dilution.
A solution's concentration is a measure of solute/solvent. Solute is the thing to be mixed in (i.e. salt in salt water) and solvent is the medium, usually liquid, for the solute to be mixed in (i.e. the water in salt water). Therefore, increasing the ratio of solute to solvent would increase the concentration. This could be done by adding more solute, or removing the solvent (i.e. going back to the salt water, adding more salt, or evaporating water would increase the concentration) The converse of this is also true to decrease the concentration.
The concentration of a solution is typically given in terms of the volume of solution, in liters.
In order to increase the concentration of a solution, you must add more solute or remove some solvent. You can remove solvent through evaporation.
The concentration will increase since the quantity of the solved material increases compared to the quantity of the solvent which is lost due to solvent evaporation.
The concentration is the strenght of the solution.
Dilute solution: low concentration of the solute in the solvent Concentrated solution: high concentration of the solute in the solvent
Hypertonic solution is one which has higher osmotic concentration and less solvent concentration as compared to another solution. Hypotonic solution is one that possesses lower osmotic concentration and higher solvent concentration as compared to another solution. Isotonic solution is a solution that has same concentration, osmotic as well as solvent, as that of another solution .
To increase the concentration of a solution, you can decrease the amount of solvent by boiling off, or by evaporation, or you can simply add more solute. Conversely, to decrease the concentration, you can add more solvent.
A hypo-tonic solution contains higher concentration of solvent. When it is compared with a hyper-tonic solution.
Hypertonic solution is one which has higher osmotic concentration and less solvent concentration as compared to another solution. Hypotonic solution is one that possesses lower osmotic concentration and higher solvent concentration as compared to another solution.
Hypertonic solution is one which has higher osmotic concentration and less solvent concentration as compared to another solution. Hypotonic solution is one that possesses lower osmotic concentration and higher solvent concentration as compared to another solution.
Add salt to the solution. Change the temperature of the solution. Let the solvent evaporate in increase the concentration of the soluble complex. Change the pH of the solution.
Adding solvent will make a solution more diluted. Think of it this way. Take water (solvent) and dissolve salt into it (solute). In order to dilute or increase the ratio of solvent to solute, you would add more water.
