Antonyms

Question:

Choose the most appropriate ANTONYM of the given word.

Dilute

Options:

thinned

adulterated

concentrated

None of the above

Correct Answer:

concentrated

Explanation:

The most appropriate antonym of the word dilute is concentrated.

  • Dilute means to make something less concentrated or strong by adding water or another substance.
  • Concentrated means to make something stronger or more intense by adding less water or another substance.

The other words do not have the same meaning as dilute and are therefore not antonyms.

  • Thinned means to make something less thick or dense by adding water or another substance.
  • Adulterated means to make something impure by adding something else, especially something harmful or inferior.
