A solution that has a relatively low amount of solute is called Dilute Solution.

Explanation:

Solutions are homogeneous mixtures of two components called as solute and solvent. Solvent is the major part while solute constitutes the minor part of the solution.

In solutions the concentration of solute in solvent is further classified as Dilute and Concentrated.

Those solutions in which higher concentration of solute is present in given volume of solvent are called as Concentrated Solutions. For example adding 4 spoons of sugar in tea cup.

While, Those solutions in which less concentration of solute is present in given volume of solvent are called as Dilute Solutions. For example adding half spoon of sugar in tea cup.
