what is difference between aqueous solution and dilute solution?

Answer 1

An aqeous solution is having water as its base. It can be a dilute solution or a concentrated solution or a supersaturated solution. If the solvent is water, it is an aqeous solution.

A dilute solution need not be water based. For example alcohol, ether, acetone etc. can be the solvent. A dilute solution means that the concentration of the solute (the substance dissolved) is less compared to a concentrated solution and when the amount of the solute exceeds the solubility limit, you have a supersaturated solution.

Answer 2

Dilute Solution

Answer 3

When a solute is dissolved in water(universal solvent),the solution is called aqueous solution.

But a dilute solution is a solution which contains an higher concentration of water than the solute.

So,an aqueous solution may not be always diluted but a dilute solution is always an aqueous solution.

Answer 4

aqueous and dilute are different descrptions of a solution. aqueous means that water is the solvent while dilute means that there is very little solute in a given amount of solvent.

The difference between the two is like the difference between a car's color and the number of people it can seat. Two difference properties with two different descritpions.

A strong acid is an acid which completely dissociates (ie HCl --> H+ + Cl-) in aqueous solution, while a weak acid will only partially dissociate. So a dilute solution of a strong acid may be the same pH as a solution of a weak acid, but all of the molecules of the strong acid will have dissociated, while there will always be some undissociated acid in the solution of the weak acid.
