What is the difference between a dilute solution and concentrated solution?

Answer 1

'Dilute' means LOW and 'Concentrated' means HIGH concentration of solute(s)

Answer 2

1. A concentrated solution has a big concentration of the solute; for a dilute solution the situation is inverse.

2. The properties are also different: color, odor, pH, density, light absorption, viscosity, and many others.
concentrated and dilute are relative terms. Concentrated has more solute dissolved per liter than dilute.

Answer 3

Concentration: quantity of a substance in a mixture (in this case called the solution) related to total mass or volume.

Concentrated solution - an example: 1 liter of water containing 200 g of table salt.

Diluted solution - an example: 1 liter of water containing 20 g of table salt.

Answer 4

A dilute solution has a low concentration of solute compared to solvent, while a concentrated solution has a high concentration of solute compared to solvent. In other words, a dilute solution has relatively more solvent and less solute, whereas a concentrated solution has relatively more solute and less solvent.

Answer 5

In a diluted solution, the concentration of a solute is very low. And in a concentrated solution the concentration of a solute is high.

Answer 6

Dilute = high solvent %, low solute % Concentrated = low solvent %, high solute %

Answer 7

The dilute solution contains less solute than concentrated solutions.

Answer 8

Concentrated solutions have a lot of solute usually close to the maximum that can dissolve (near "saturated") whereas dilute solutions have relatively little.
