Define solute

• A solute is a substance that cannot be dissolved.
• A solute is a substance that is dissolved in a solvent.
• A solute is a type of solvent.
• A solute is a mixture of two or more substances.

Define solvent

• A solvent is a type of chemical reaction.
• A solvent is a solid that cannot dissolve in liquids.
• A solvent is a mixture of gases that does not form a solution.
• A solvent is a substance that dissolves a solute to form a solution.

Define solution

• A solution is a solid substance that cannot dissolve in any liquid.
• A solution is a homogeneous mixture of a solute and a solvent.
• A solution is a mixture of two or more solids that do not interact with each other.
• A solution is a type of chemical reaction that produces gas.

Define concentrated

• Having a high concentration of solute in a solution or being focused.
• A method of diluting a solution
• Being distracted or unfocused
• Having a low concentration of solute in a solution

Define dilute

• To increase the concentration of a solution by adding more solute.
• To create a solid from a liquid solution.
• To mix two solutions without changing their concentrations.
• To make a solution less concentrated by adding more solvent.

Define a saturated solution

• A saturated solution is one that contains no solute at all.
• A saturated solution is one that contains the maximum concentration of solute that can be dissolved at a specific temperature and pressure.
• A saturated solution is one that can dissolve any amount of solute regardless of temperature.
• A saturated solution is one that has a lower concentration of solute than a concentrated solution.

Define a supersaturated solution

• A supersaturated solution is one that contains more than the maximum concentration of solute that can be dissolved at a specific temperature and pressure.

• A supersaturated solution is one that contains the maximum concentration of solute that can be dissolved at a specific temperature and pressure.

• A saturated solution is one that can dissolve any amount of solute regardless of temperature.
• A saturated solution is one that has a lower concentration of solute than a concentrated solution.

Define an unsaturated solution

• An unsaturated solution is one that can still dissolve more solute.
• An unsaturated solution is a solution that cannot dissolve any more solute.
• An unsaturated solution is one that has reached its maximum solute capacity.
• An unsaturated solution contains no solute at all.

If the amount of solute present in a solution is more than the maximum than can be dissolved, the solution is

• saturated
• unsaturated
• supersaturated
• colloidal
