Question

If some solute is dissolved in pure water, its water potential

Answer 1

Explanation:

The pure water, at atmospheric pressure, has a water potential of zero(0). The addition of solute particles reduces the free energy of water and thus decreases the water potential(negative value). Because of this, the water potential of a solution is always less than zero. ❤❤❤❤❤
