Question
Determine whether a solution made by dissolving 6 teaspoons of gelatine in 400 mL of apple juice be more dilute or more concentrated. Explain your answer.
Solution
To determine whether a solution is more dilute or more concentrated, we need to know the concentration of the original solution before the gelatine was added. However, since we don't have this information, we can only make assumptions based on the information given.
-
First, let's understand the terms. A solution is said to be 'concentrated' when there is a large amount of solute (in this case, gelatine) in the solvent (in this case, apple juice). Conversely, a solution is said to be 'dilute' when there is a small amount of solute in the solvent.
-
In this case, we are adding 6 teaspoons of gelatine to 400 mL of apple juice. Without knowing the original concentration of the apple juice, we can't definitively say whether the solution is more concentrated or more dilute.
-
However, we can say that the addition of gelatine increases the concentration of the solution because we are adding more solute to the solvent.
-
Therefore, the solution of gelatine and apple juice is likely more concentrated than the original apple juice alone.
Remember, this is an assumption based on the information given. The actual concentration would depend on the original concentration of the apple juice and the amount of gelatine added.

A student dissolved 5 g of sugar in 100 mL of distilled water in beaker A. She dissolved100 g of sugar in100 mL of distilled water in beaker B. Then she dropped a few raisins ofequal weight in each beaker. After two hours she found the raisins in A swollen and thosein B shrunken.
