Question
The drawings below represent flasks of aqueous solutions. Each pink dot represents a dissolved solute particle. 

**Description of Solutions:**

- **500 mL Solution A**: Contains 6 pink dots.
- **500 mL Solution B**: Contains 4 pink dots.
- **500 mL Solution C**: Contains 5 pink dots.

- **250 mL Solution D**: Contains 3 pink dots.
- **250 mL Solution E**: Contains 2 pink dots.
- **250 mL Solution F**: Contains 5 pink dots.

**Question**: 
If you evaporate half the water off of solution C, the contents of which flask best represent the new solution?

**Explanation**:
The question is asking you to determine which flask represents the concentration of solute after Solution C's volume is reduced by half. 

Initially, Solution C has 5 dots in 500 mL. Halving the water to 250 mL while keeping the solute will double the concentration. Now, 5 dots will fit into 250 mL, which matches the concentration in **Solution F**.
