A solution with the same solute concentration as another (e.g. human body fluids) is called isotonic.

What is it called when a solution has a lesser concentration of particles?

A solution which has a lesser concentration of particles is said to be dilute.


How is a hypertonic solution different from a hypotonic solution?

Hypotonic solution has much less particles dissolved inside the solvent than there is in the cell floating in the mixture. A hypertonic solution has a greater concentration of particles dissolved in the solvent than inside the cell.


When particles move from a place of higher concentration to a place of lower concentration?

it is called transportation and this is part of the definition for "osmosis" - the tendency of a fluid, usually water, to pass through a semipermeable membrane into a solution where the solvent concentration is higher, thus equalizing the concentrations of materials on either side of the membrane. orrr basically it just means that there is more of that particle in the area of greater concentration than that of the lesser concentration. For example you might put 1cm cubed of black currant squash into one cup of water and this would be a weak or lesser concentration. However if you put 40cm cubed of black currant squash into a cup of water it is a higher concentration and therefore there are more of that particle in that solution. if you get what i mean :) happy to help if i did xxx


What is the name of the natural movement molecules from greater to lesser concentration?

The process is called diffusion. It is the movement of molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration, driven by the natural tendency of particles to spread out and become more evenly distributed.


What is the difference between a solute and solvent?

In a solution, the particles which are present in larger quantity are called solvent and the particles which are present in smaller quantity are called solute. For example, in aqueous NaCl solution: NaCl is the solute particle and H2O is the solvent.

What is the movement of molecules from great concentration to lesser concentration?

The movement of molecules from great concentration to lesser concentration is called diffusion. However when dealing water molecules it is referred to as osmosis.

Is a osmosis a diffusion?

Diffusion is the movement of molecules from the area of higher concentration to the area of lower concentration i.e.along concentration gradient . Osmosis is the movement of water across a semi-permeable member from a solution of lesser solute concentration to a solution of higher solute concentration .
