Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Whenever there is less concentration of solute particles in a solvent then it means less number of solute particles are available. As a result, there will occur less number of collisions between the solvent and solute particles.
It means that there will be a decrease in rate of reaction.
But if there is more concentration of solute particles then it shows more number of solute particles are available for reaction. As a result, more number of collisions will take place between the particles of solute and solvent.
Hence, then there will occur an increase in rate of reaction.
Thus, we can conclude that a lower concentration of dissolved particles decrease the reaction rate because when there are less dissolved particles, less collisions take place.
