You and two friends sit down to a cup of coffee. You stir in one spoon of sugar, your friends stir in two and three spoons of sugar. The sugar has dissolved, so you are looking at three solutions of different concentration.

What do concentration tell you?

Concentration indicates the amount of solute present in a solution. It provides information about the strength or intensity of a substance in a given volume of solution. Different types of concentration (e.g., molarity, molality) provide different ways to express this relationship.


What is the definition of relative concentration?

the concentration of solution compared with another concentration of a solution


What is the relationship between the solution the solvent and the concentration of the solution?

The concentration is the strenght of the solution.


Which solution contains a higher concentration of solvent that the solution it is being compared with?

The solution with the higher concentration of solvent compared to another solution would be the one with a lower concentration of solute. The solvent concentration is higher in the solution where the solute concentration is lower.


What is a solution that has a lower solute concentration and a higher water concentration then another solution?

Hypotonic is the term describes a solution that has a lower solute concentration and higher water concentration than another solution Hypertonic describes a solution with a higher solute concentration compared with another solution.


What different solutions can cells be in and what happenes to them?

There are three different types of solutions you can place a cell in: hypotonic (concentration of solution less than concentration of cell), isotonic (equal concentrations) and hypertonic (concentration of solution greater than concentration of cell). In a hypotonic solution, the cell will accumulate water (in an attempt to equalize the concentration difference) and will eventually rupture from the water pressure inside the cell. In an isotonic solution, the cell will do nothing. In a hypertonic solution, the cell will shrivel as the water exits the cell to dilute the solution to the same concentration as the cell. This will cause the cell to die.


How does the concentration of water differ in the solution?

The concentration of water in a solution is highest in a dilute solution and lowest in a concentrated solution. This concentration is affected by the amount of solute present, with a higher solute concentration leading to less water present in the solution.


Hypertonic SOlution and Hypotonic 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.


What terms describes a solution with a higher concentration of dissolved substances relative to another solution?

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).


What terms describes A solution that has a lower solute concentration and a higher water concentration than another solution?

Hypotonic is the term describes a solution that has a lower solute concentration and higher water concentration than another solution Hypertonic describes a solution with a higher solute concentration compared with another solution.


What is the concentration factor formula used to calculate the concentration of a substance in a solution?

The concentration factor formula used to calculate the concentration of a substance in a solution is: Concentration (Amount of Substance / Volume of Solution) Dilution Factor
