You make 3 solutions with the same solute and solvent. Which solution would have the lowest concentration?

• A saturated solution

• All 3 solutions would have the same concentration.

• An unsaturated solution

• A supersaturated solution

Solution___ is the most concentrated

• 1

• 2

• 3

• 4

Answer explanation

The most concentrated solution is option 1. Concentration refers to the amount of solute present in a given amount of solvent. In this case, option 1 has the highest concentration of solute, making it the most concentrated solution among the given options.
