Question

True or False: You can make a concentrated solution more dilute by adding solvent.

Answer 1

A solvent is a substance that dissolves other substances called solutes.

Does sugar dissolve water? No!
Does water dissolve sugar? Of course it does!

So is water the solvent or the solute? Obviously it's the solvent and sugar is the solute!

If you have a glass of tea and you put so much sugar in it that you cannot dissolve anymore, is it concentrated? Of course it is!

If your glass is big enough and you add water to your sugary tea, are you diluting it and making it weaker? Of course you are!

Since we know that diluting something makes it weaker, can you now answer your question?

True or False: You can make a concentrated solution more dilute by adding solvent.

I can't bring myself to answer yiour question but I will rephrase the question for you...

True or False. You can make your sweetened iced tea more concentrated by adding more water(solvent).

I think you can figure it out from here!

Hope this helps! :o)
