What is the difference between a dilute solute and a concentrated solution?
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
What happens to the concentration as the solution is diluted?
When a given solution is diluted, it concentration is usually lowered as well. The density of the given solution also changes when the solution is diluted.
Is dissolving of sugar in water a chemical or phyical reaction?
Dissolution is usually considered a physical reaction, although weak chemical bonds between the solute and solvent may exist in the solution.
Why does increasing the solute concentration decrease the melting point?
Compounds exist as solids when the intermolecular forces keep the molecules locked in place. The addition of a solute interrupts the intermolecular forces between solvent molecules, making the intermolecular forces less strong and easier to disrupt. As a result, the compound will melt at a lower temperature.
What is a necessary condition for extraction of a substance from an aqueous solution?
There must exist a solvent for the substance to be extracted in which this substance's solubility is greater than the substance's solubility in water, and the solvent also must not be miscible in water, so that an interface between the solvent and water will be formed in a mixture of the two.
What do you mean by solubility of solute in solvent?
the nature of the solte and solvent determines the attractive forces that exist between particles in solution
What is the definition of a solute?
Don't really know.....you should ask someone
What does the homogeneous dispersion constitutes of?
For example a solution; only one phase exist, the solute is completely soluble in the solvent..
What is the solvent and solute of juice?
The solvent is water; but for solutes an infinite types exist.
How can you tell its a solution and not a mixture?
when one of the substance is dissolved in other substance, the one which dissolves is called solute and the other is called solvent. usually the solute molecules are surrounded by the solvent molecules, and are not mechanically separable, there exist an intermolecular bond. and an energy equivalent to it is given out. in this case it is called solution and not the mixture.

How do you decide which part of a mixture is the solute and which part is the solvent?
after mixing a solvent and a solute toget her, you have to look to see which of the components you added still remains in the mixture and which isn't there anymore.
What is the definition of universal solvent?
The definition for universal solvent is a substance that dissolves solids liquids and gases, or water. <Mayor Rick>

When is water a solute?
We normally think of a solute as a solid that is added to a solvent (e.g., adding table salt to water), but the solute could just as easily exist in another phase. For example, if we add a small amount of ethanol to water, then the ethanol is the solute and the water is the solvent. If we add a smaller amount of water to a larger amount of ethanol, then the water could be the solute!
