What is the best way to compare a concentrated solution to a dilute solution, given the same volume of solution?

The concentrated solution has less solute than the dilute solution.
a) The concentrated solution has the same amount of solute as the dilute solution.
b) The concentrated solution has more solute than the dilute solution.
c) The concentrated solution has a different amount of solute than the dilute solution.
d) The concentrated solution has the same amount of solute as the dilute solution.

The correct answer is B. Given a same volume of a solution, the concentrated solution has more solute than the dilute solution. For instance, we are given two NaOH solutions having a volume of 1L one has a concentration of 1M and the other is 2M. The latter has more solute since it has 2 moles of NaOH while the other only has 1 mole.

Answer: b) The concentrated solution has more solute than the dilute solution.

Explanation:-

Binary Solution is a homogeneous mixture of two components called as solute and solvent. Solute is the component which is present in smaller proportion and is solid for solid in liquid solution and solvent is the component which is present in larger proportion and is liquid for solid in liquid solution.

Concentrated solution is one in which there is more amount of solid.

Dilute solution is one in which there is more amount of liquid.
