SCIENCE

Today we looked at types of solutions

Solutions can be dilute or concentrated

A dilute solution: has a small amount of solute in a given amount of solvent.

A concentrated solution has a large amount of solute in a given amount of solvent.

Adding more solute can change a solution from dilute to concentrated.
 For example, copper sulphate added to water makes a dilute solution. Adding more copper sulphate will make a concentrated solution.


Concentration is found by dividing the mass of solute by the 100 ml of solution
