Question

What is difference between aqueous solution and dilute solution ?????????????????? Plz Help me in this question!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 1

Dilute simply means that the concentration of the solute of interest, in this case NaOH, is low relative to some reference. One could imagine a non-aqueous, dilute solution of NaOH in, say, methanol.

An aqueous solution is one where the solvent is water, regardless of the concentration of the dissolved solute(s).

So, for example, the following combinations of the terms are possible:

Concentrated aqueous solution - High NaOH concentration in a water solvent

Dilute aqueous solution - Low NaOH concentration in a water solvent

Concentrated methanolic solution - High NaOH concentration in a methanol solvent

Dilute methanolic solution - Low NaOH concentration in a methanol solvent

Answer 2

Answer:

yes here there is an important difference to observe

Explanation:

Aqueous solution means the solution of solute dissolved in water as solvent. It does not indicate the concentration of that solution.

Dilute solution says about  the strength of the solution. That means the amount of solvent is very high. The solvent can be water or any other organic solvent such as carbon tetrachloride etc.

Concentrated  solution - relative quantity of the solute is more that that of the solvent Examples: conc HNO₃, Conc HCl.

Dilute  solution - Low NaOH concentration in a water solvent

examples: dil CH₃COOH,etc

here are other confusing terms from chemistry for u

1. The difference between crystallization and  Precipitation Crystallization: The formation of a crystalline solid from a solution, melt vapour or a different solid phase, generally by the lowering of the temperature or by evaporation of a solvent.                                           Precipitation: The sedimentation of a solid material (a precipitate) from a liquid solution in which the material is present in amounts greater than its solubility in the liquid.
2. The difference between mass and weight                          Mass is the amount of matter in a sample.                           while weight is how the force of gravity acts upon that mass. On Earth, where gravity acts on all masses, they have equivalent values.
3. The difference between Accuracy and Precision:             Accuracy refers to the closeness of a measured value to a standard or known value. ...                                                 Precision refers to the closeness of two or more measurements to each other.                                                 let us understand this using an example, if you weigh a given substance five times, and get 3.2 kg each time, then your measurement is very precise.

here i have presented the common areas of confusion so that it would be clear for u!!!!

hope that it helps  :)
