Difference Between Dilution and Concentration

Dilution is the addition of solvent, which decreases the concentration of the solute in the solution. Concentration is the removal of solvent, which increases the concentration of the solute in the solution.

What does dilution do to concentration?

Dilution refers to the process of adding additional solvent to a solution to decrease its concentration. This process keeps the amount of solute constant, but increases the total amount of solution, thereby decreasing its final concentration.

How do you convert concentration to dilution?

Calculate concentration of solution after dilution: c2 = (c1V1) ÷ V. Calculate the new concentration in mol L-1 (molarity) if enough water is added to 100.00 mL of 0.25 mol L-1 sodium chloride solution to make up 1.5 L.

Does a dilute solution have high concentration?

A dilute solution contains a high concentration of water molecules , while a concentrated solution contains a low concentration of water molecules.

What does dilution mean?

1 : the action of diluting : the state of being diluted. 2 : something (such as a solution) that is diluted. 3 : a lessening of real value (as of equity) by a decrease in relative worth specifically : a decrease of per share value of common stock by an increase in the total number of shares.
