Solution

The correct option is B
the hot tea

The solubility of most substances (solutes) increases with temperature. So, the hot tea will dissolve more sugar (solute) than iced tea and will have a higher concentration. A concentrated solution is a solution which has relatively a large amount of solute in the solution.
