Hi there
The total concentration will decrease. The concentration is measured in M. Since, you are adding more solvent, concentration will decrease
The total concentration will decrease. The concentration is measured in M. Since, you are adding more solvent, concentration will decrease
Explanation:
When we dilute a solution then it means we are increasing the volume of solvent into the solution.
Therefore, there occurs a decrease in the concentration of solute.
Whereas when a solution is concentrated then it means concentration of solute is more than the concentration of solvent into the solution.
Thus, we can conclude that in a dilution, solvent is added to a given amount of a concentrated solution then there occurs a decrease in total concentration.
