A mixture with very little dissolved solute

Real World Example

Imagine trying to make a cup of tea by dipping the tea bag into a large pot of hot water for just a brief moment. This results in a very weak brew, similar to how a dilute solution contains very little dissolved solute. In both cases, the key issue is the lack of concentration—just as the tea lacks flavor because the tea leaves are not steeped enough, a dilute solution lacks a significant amount of solute dispersed throughout the solvent.
