  • Hypertonic Solutions: Definition & Understanding
    The term descriptive of the solution with a higher solute concentration is hypertonic.

    Here's a breakdown:

    * Hypertonic: A solution with a higher solute concentration compared to another solution.

    * Hypotonic: A solution with a lower solute concentration compared to another solution.

    * Isotonic: Two solutions with equal solute concentrations.

    The terms are relative, meaning that one solution is hypertonic to another only in comparison.
