Question

Define the Solution.

Answer 1

Solution:

• Solutions are a homogeneous mixture of solute and solvent.
• It is a homogeneous mixture of two or more two components.
• Solute particles in a solution do not settle down if it left undisturbed.

For examples:

• A mixture of $\mathrm{Oxygen}\left({\mathrm{O}}_2\right)$ and $\mathrm{Hydrogen}\left({\mathrm{H}}_2\right)$ gases.
• A solution of sand in water.
• A solution of salt in water.
• A solution of sugar in water.

Solvent:

• A substance that can dissolve a given solute and form a solution with it is known as a solvent.
• For example, water, and ethanol.

Solute:

• A solute is a substance that presents in less amount and dissolves in the solvent to make a solution.
• For example In salt solution, salt is the solute.

Conclusion:

So Solutions are a homogeneous mixture of solute and solvent.
