Which of the following solutions contains the most solute?

A. Hypotonic

B. Isotonic

C. Equilibrium

D. Hypertonic

Answer

D. Hypertonic

Explanation

A hypertonic solution contains more solute than the solvent. When comparing solutions, a hypertonic solution has a higher concentration of solute particles compared to an isotonic or hypotonic solution. In contrast, an isotonic solution has an equal concentration of solute and solvent, and a hypotonic solution has a lower concentration of solute relative to solvent.
