The statement is true. Solvent is what you dissolve a solute in. In chemistry, your solvent is usually going to be water. So, if you have a concentrated solution and you pour some more water into it, you're diluting the 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


What is a solution that has very few solute particles dissolved in the solvent?

Concentrated solution. (High density solution) Supersaturated solution if amount of solute is greater than its solubility in the solvent at the given temperature.


Explain the term concentrated solution and dilute solution?

A solution contains two things. A solute (the thing which is dissolved) and the solvent (the thing it's dissolved into). For example to make salt-water, you dissolve the solute (salt) into the solvent (water). A concentrated solution has a lot of solute, compared to the amount of solvent. There are two ways to concentrate a solution. 1) adding more solute. 2) removing some of the solvent (usually through evaporation). A dilute solution is the opposite, it has very little solute in there. The two ways of diluting a solution are; 1) adding more solvent. 2) removing some of the solute. Most solutions have a point of saturation, where the maximum amount of solute has been added. This is the maximum concentration of the solution.


What solutions have less solute?

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).


Using the terms solute and solvent. describe a concentrated solution?

Yup. A solution contains a solute and a solvent. In the solution Salt Water, salt is the solute and water the solvent. Concentrated solutions are heavy on the solutes; dilute ones heavy on the solvents.

How could you make concentrated solution weaker?

A concentrated solution can be weakened by adding more of the solution material (usually water) to dilute it.


Differentiate dilute solution and concentrated solution?

Dilute solution: low concentration of the solute in the solvent Concentrated solution: high concentration of the solute in the solvent


Difference between concentrated and dilute solution?

dilute solution has a small amount of solute in the solvent while concentrated solution has a large amount of solute in the solvent.


How do you dilute solution from a concentrated solution?

Add more solvent.


Compare and contrast the properties of dilute and concentrated solutions?

Compare and contrast the properties of dilute and concentrated solutions is because you can dilute you solvent into a solution and then you have a concentrated solution.

What is dilluted solution?

A solution that has a small amount of solute dissolved in it.


Which has a higher pH value a concentrated or dilute solution of HCL?

Concentrated. You dilute it with a pH 7 solvent (water). There are more H+ ions available in concentrated


What is the diffusion of water of another solvent from a more dilute solution to a more concentrated solution through a membrane that is permeable to the solvent?

OSMOSIS


A solution containing large amounts of solute in comparison to solvent is what?

A solution that contains a large amount of solute when compared to the volume of the solvent is called a concentrated solution. Examples of concentrated solutions are hydrochloric acid and sulfuric acid. A dilute solution is one where the amount of solute is small compared to the solvent.


Is the concentration change after you add water to solution?

Adding more solute to a solution will increase its concentration. Adding more solvent will only dilute it. Think of salt water. The salt is the solute, and water is the solvent. Add salt and it becomes a more concentrated solution. Add more water, and it is more dilute. Simple and easy once you think it through.
