Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which is more concentrated? A substance with a concentration of ____
A
50g solute/200 ml solvent
B
35g solute/100 ml solvent
C
25g solute/100 ml solvent
D
40g solute/50 ml solvent
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The concentration of a solution is a measure of the amount of solute that has been dissolved in a given amount of solvent or solution. A concentrated solution is one that has a relatively large amount of dissolved solute.

Detailed explanation-2: -So, the mass of solvent (i.e. water) is less than 1000 gram. Therefore 1 molar aqueous solution contains 1 mole of solute in less than 1000 gram of solvent whereas 1 molar solution has 1 mole of solute in 1000 gram of solvent. Hence concentration will be more in 1 molar aqueous solution.

Detailed explanation-3: -Hypertonic: The solution with the higher concentration of solutes. Hypotonic: The solution with the lower concentration of solutes.

Detailed explanation-4: -50% = 50 g in 100 ml (= 500 mg in 1 ml = 5 g in 10 ml)
