If you are wondering its concentration there are two signs both of which give qualitative measure of how concentrated a solution of Kool-Aid is. the first one is by colourmetic evaluation, which simply is looking at the intensity of the colour of the solution to judge how concentrated. If you have a few standards with known concentrations one may guess at the approximate concentration of the solution. The second method is to taste the solution and judge the flavour/sweetness of the solution.
Add water.
Dilute solution: low concentration of the solute in the solvent Concentrated solution: high concentration of the solute in the solvent
The concentration is lower than the original solution. Or you can look at is as the solution is diluted........
If the amount of solute in unit volume of the solution is high, it is called a concentrated solution If the amount of solute in unit volume of the solution is low, it is called dilute solution
Low-quality matter is that is dilute or dispersed or contains a low concentration of useful resources. High-quality matter is matter that is concentrated and contains a high concentration of a useful resource. An example of high-quality matter would be natural gas. An example of low quality matter would be gasoline.
You are probably looking for "dilute" but that is wrong, dilute is relative. A dilute solution of table salt (sodium chloride) can be a very different concentration to a dilute solution of slaked lime (calcium hydroxide).
'Dilute' means LOW and 'Concentrated' means HIGH concentration of solute(s)
Concentrated solutions have high amounts of the solute (i.e 8 molar HCl in water) as opposed to a dilute version may have very little of the solute and be mainly water (i.e. 0.1 Molar HCl in water).
Going with the concentration gradient is basically the process of diffusion. Molecules going from a low concentration to a high concentration would be going with the concentration gradient. Going against the concentration gradient would be the movement of particles from a high concentration to a low concentration
No, osmosis is the movement of water particles through a semi-permeable membrane, from a place where there is a high concentration of water, to where there is a lower concentration of water. It can be confusing, because when we talk about solutions we often refer to the concentration of the solute rather than the solvent. For instance, if we have a cell containing cell sap with a high concentration of sugar, and a more dilute solution outside the cell, water will flow into the cell. If you think about the sugar, it might seem that particles are going to the more 'crowded' areas, but the important thing is the concentration of the molecules which are moving, i.e. the water molecules. A dilute solution of sugar has a higher concentration of water than a concentrated one.
Osmosis is the movement of water from a High Water (Dilute Solution) to a Low Water (Strong Solution). If blood plasma becomes very dilute with water, when it travels to the brain the brain cells will swell because the are taking on too much water. This happens because the high concentration of water (in the blood) is moving to the lower concentration of water (brain cells) making the cells swell as they are taking on too much water.
An electrolyte is said to be concentrated, in a solution which has high concentration of ions. It is said to be dilute in a low concentration of ions solution. The electrolyte is strong, if a high proportion of the solute dissociates to form free ions. The electrolyte is weak, if most of the solute does not dissociate.
During the process of diffusion the particles of a matter from its higher concentration move towards its lower concentration by their own kinetic energy. For example in the process of osmosis in plants the water molecules from their higher concentration (in a more dilute solution of water in the soil) move towards the cell sap of the root hair that contains less amount of water.
