Best Answer

A solution is a mixture in which the particles of the solute

  • are supported by the particles of the solvent,
  • are too small to be seen, and
  • spread evenly through the solvent.

A solution consists of a solvent dissolved in a solute.

Examples:

  • sugar (solute) dissolves in water (solvent) because there are similar oxygen to hydrogen bonds in both;
  • salt/ table salt dissolves in water because both have positive and negative areas in their structures;
  • petrol will not dissolve in water because water has areas that are positive or negative whereas, petrol does not.
