Interpretation:
The given blank is to be filled.
Concept introduction:
A solution is formed when solute is dissolved in solvent.
Solution is generally of two types:
Concentrated solution
Dilute solution
Answer to Problem 6A
Unsaturated solution
Explanation of Solution
A solution contains solute and solvent. Solute is dissolved in solvent. When solute concentration is high, the solution is concentrated and when solute concentration is low comparative to solvent, the solution is dilute.
A particular amount of solvent can dissolve a fixed amount of solute at a particular temperature. At the maximum concentration of solute which can be dissolved in a given amount of solvent, the solution gets saturated with the solute. At the concentration lower than this value, the solution is said to be unsaturated.
A solution which can dissolve more solute is unsaturated solution.
