Summary

Description
English: This image shows a solution before and after dilution, i.e. adding solvent. Through the dilution process, the volume increases and the concentrations of the solutes decrease. As a consequence, there is more solution in the graduated cylinder after solution, and the color of the solution becomes fainter. The inset shows that at the particular level (picometer to nanometer scale), there are less solute particles (red triangles) per volume. The content in the central box shows the dilution law, i.e. that the product of concentration and volume stays constant upon dilution. The image of the graduated cylinder is File:Measuring cylinder.svg.
