adding solute to the solution

Answer 1

The concentration of a solution would remain constant after removing solution from the container. This is because removing an equal amount of solute and solvent keeps the ratio the same, thus maintaining the concentration. In contrast, adding water dilutes the solution, evaporating water reduces the solvent but concentrates the solute, and adding solute increases the concentration.
