Question

suppose you add solute molecules that are highly concentrated to water and that diffusion of the solute occurs very quickly. what will happen to the distribution of solute after a long time? multiple choice the solute will disappear within the solution. nothing will happen. the solute concentration will be the same everywhere. the solute concentration will be high in a local area.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Diffusion is the movement of solute from an area of high - concentration to an area of low - concentration. Over a long time, in the absence of other forces, the solute will reach equilibrium where its concentration is the same everywhere in the solution.

Answer:

The solute concentration will be the same everywhere.
