What is the dilution of the solution in tube 1 and 2 .
Dilution is the process that reduces the overall concentration of a solute present in a solution. A solute is any substance that is dissolved in a solvent to prepare a solution. Dilution is achieved by adding more solvent, usually water, to the original solution. This increases the volume of the solution while keeping the amount of the solute constant, resulting in a decreased concentration. Dilution allows researchers to create solutions with specific concentrations. Dilution is usually expressed quantitatively in terms of ratios, such as 1:10, and 1/10 (one part solute to ten parts solvent).
