The more concentrated solution is called "hypertonic".
Think of when you went to elementary school and there was always that extremely hyper, almost A.D.D. child in your class. So, to help your remember, think of the kid because hypertonic means "above strength." Hope that helped. :]
Examples: - concentrated solution of sulfuric acid - concentrated solution of nitric acid - concentrated solution of ethanol - concentrated solution of sugar (syrup) - concentrated solution of table salt
Osmosis. A solution with a low concentration of solutes would have a higher concentration of water than a solution with a high concentration of solutes. So in this case, water is moving from a higher concentration of water to a lower concentration of water, which is osmosis.
hypotonic is the world for a lower concentration of solutes. it just depends on what side of the membrane you are referring to. whatever side has more solutes = hyper, whatever side has less = hypo.
Movement to meet higher over lower priority needs describes the role of osmosis in high concentrations of fertilizer salts in soils damaging plants. Solutes such as salts in the soil and water in plants and soils move from areas of high concentrations and volumes to lower. Salt in the soil will invade a plant's permeable roots from which water will be pulled into the soil in an attempt to equal concentrations and volumes, to the detriment of plants and soil food web members.
A solution with a high concentration of non-permeating solutes is called hypertonic. This means that the solute concentration in the solution is higher compared to the solute concentration inside the cell. Cells placed in a hypertonic solution will lose water and shrink due to osmosis.
Such solutions are called concentrated acids or bases. In these solutions, the acids and bases are present in high concentrations, but they do not neutralize each other due to the excess of one over the other.

Concentrated solutions have a high amount of solute particles dissolved in the solvent, whereas dilute solutions have a low amount of solute particles. Concentrated solutions are stronger and have a higher concentration, while dilute solutions are weaker and have a lower concentration.
Depending on temperature and pressure, sulfuric and phosphoric acid are able to reach the highest concentrations (97+ wt%) out of the strong acids. However, acetic acid, which is a weak acid, is able to reach 98.5% concentration under standard conditions. Although acetic acid is only partially dissociated into its ions, it would still be considered more "concentrated" than the strong acids. The difference between strength versus concentration should be noted.
The opposite ends of the concentration spectrum are dilute and concentrated solutions. Dilute solutions have a low solute-to-solvent ratio, while concentrated solutions have a high solute-to-solvent ratio.

Concentrated solutions have high solute concentration, while dilute solutions have low solute concentration. Saturated solutions have the maximum amount of solute dissolved at a specific temperature, while unsaturated solutions can dissolve more solute at that temperature.
A solution with a high amount of solute is considered concentrated. This means there is a large quantity of the solute dissolved in the solvent. Concentrated solutions usually have a higher concentration than diluted solutions.
A concentrated solution has a high amount of solute dissolved in a solvent, while a dilute solution has a low amount of solute dissolved in a solvent. This means that concentrated solutions have a high solute-to-solvent ratio, while dilute solutions have a low solute-to-solvent ratio.
hypotonic is the world for a lower concentration of solutes. it just depends on what side of the membrane you are referring to. whatever side has more solutes = hyper, whatever side has less = hypo.
This process is known as diffusion. Under circumstances of a permeable membrane, solutes will always flow from areas of higher concentrations to lower concentrations until an equilibrium is established
