A solution with lots of solvent and only a little solute is said to be a very weak or very dilute solution. This solution will have a very low concentration of the soluble substance within the solvent. It's just that simple, but we need to add a footnote of sorts.

It should be understood that this may or may not have anything to do with the solubility of the solute. Let's look at that so you are prepared for more advanced concepts. If only a little bit of a substance can be dissolved or will dissolve in a solvent, it may be close to saturation though there is only a small amount of a substance actually dissolved in the solvent. When investigating this area of chemistry, this will make more sense when looking deeper into the issues with solvents, solutes and solutions.

What are four types of solution?

Saturated solution is the ideal type of solution. The other is unsaturated, which is less saturated than what the solvent (water, liquid etc.), and it can dilute. The last one is supersaturated which mean the solution contains more solute (solid materials).


When a solid dissolves in water is the solid called a solute?

Yes: Solvent is the thing it dissolves into (eg. water) Solute is the thing being dissolved (eg. salt) Solution is what is create (the salt dissolved in water makes a salt solution)

In a solution what is the substance that is dissolved called?

The substance that is being dissolved is the solute.By convention, when discussing solutions we say that a solute is dissolved into a solvent.A solute is dissolved in a solvent to form a solution. For example, salt (the solute) is dissolved into water (the solvent) to form saline water (a solution).
