Concentration and dilution

 Today in science we are learning about Concentration and Dilution.

If there are lots of particles in a liquid, it is concentrated, but if there are not a lot of particles it is a dilute.

A concentration is how much solute has been dissolved in the solvent. We can measure somethings concentration on how dilute (weak) or concentrated (strong) it is. Dilute is when we make something weaker or less concentrated. 

Our experiment today is a dilution series.

Result:

It got more diluted every time and it got purple straight away after putting the crystal in. The most concentrated one was the first tube that got the crystal (10mL tube).

Solvent: Water (what the solute dissolves in)

Solute: Potassium Permanganate (what gets dissolved in the solvent)
