By knowing the concentrations of solute and solvent on the inside and outside of a cell, the direction of osmosis and the result of the cell can be predicted. Solutions on the outside of a cell can be described based on how they affect the cell.

Is dilution is the addition of solute to decrease the concentration of solvent?

No. dilution is the addition of solvent to decrease the concentration of a solute.


What is the Relationship of solute concentration and solvent concentration?

These words are the two parts of dissolution. A solute is what is being dissolved, and a solvent is what dissolves it. The most universal solvent is water, which means that most solutes can be dissolved into it. A solute (e.g. sugar) is dissolved in a solvent (e.g. water) to make a solution - sugar solution


What is a ratio of a solute to a solvent is?

This is the concentration of the solute in the solution.


Where is the higher solvent concentration?

The higher solvent concentration is where there are more solvent molecules relative to the solute molecules. This results in a more dilute solution with a lower solute concentration.


Is solubility a synonymous with concentration?

No.


What is the relationship between solutes solutions and solvents?

1. A solvent and a solute are both parts of a solution.2. The solvent is mostly in majority and, it dissolves a solute in itself to make a solution.


What tells us how much solute is present compared to the amount of solvent?

How can you change concentration?

To increase the concentration of a solution, you can decrease the amount of solvent by boiling off, or by evaporation, or you can simply add more solute. Conversely, to decrease the concentration, you can add more solvent.


How do you indicate the concentration of soloutions?

concentration= solvent times solute
