When both the solute and solvent are gases, the solute is the gas that is being dissolved, and the solvent is the gas in which the solute is dissolved. An example is the dissolution of carbon dioxide (solute) in water vapor (solvent) to form carbonated water.
Neither of both. Gasses never are solvents. Air is a mixture -not a solution- of more gasses, none of them are solvent nor solute. When oxygen dissolves in water then this gas is the solute in water (the solvent).
No, a solution is a homogeneous mixture composed of two or more substances. The solute is the substance that is dissolved in the solvent. The solute can be a solid, liquid, or gas, and the solvent is typically a liquid, but can also be a gas or solid.
Solute- whatever chemicals are in the air freshener Solvent- the air
An example of a solution where the solute and solvent are not easily distinguishable is a metal alloy, such as bronze. In bronze, copper is the solvent and tin is the solute, but they are completely mixed at the atomic level, resulting in a uniform composition throughout the mixture.
Oxygen in nitrogen is an example of a gas-liquid solute-solvent combination, where oxygen (gas) is the solute and nitrogen (liquid) is the solvent.
Solutions in which solute and solvent both are gases; are called Gas-gas Solutions. For example - solution (mixture) of nitrogen and oxygen, solution (mixture) of carbon dioxide and nitrogen, solution (mixture) of carbon dioxide and oxygen, etc.
A solution has two components: a solvent and a solute. If the solvent is a gas then the solute must be a gas. If the solvent is liquid or solid then the solute can be gas, liquid or solid.A solution is a homogeneous mixture of the solvent and solute such that the bits of the solute cannot be seen by the naked eye. It is a stable mixture whose components cannot be separated by mechanical means.
When both the solute and solvent are gases, the solute is the gas that is being dissolved, and the solvent is the gas in which the solute is dissolved. An example is the dissolution of carbon dioxide (solute) in water vapor (solvent) to form carbonated water.
B. A solute and a solvent
In the context of solutions, nitrogen gas is the solute when dissolved in a solvent like water, ethanol, or any other suitable liquid. Nitrogen gas can dissolve to some extent in these solvents to form a solution.
Neither of both. Gasses never are solvents. Air is a mixture -not a solution- of more gasses, none of them are solvent nor solute. When oxygen dissolves in water then this gas is the solute in water (the solvent).
In a balloon filled with air, the solute is the gases making up the air (such as oxygen, nitrogen, carbon dioxide), while the solvent is the gas that fills the space in between the molecules of the solute gases, which is typically nitrogen.
In a gaseous solution, both the solute and solvent are in the gaseous state. The solute molecules are dispersed within the gas molecules of the solvent. The solute particles interact with the solvent particles to form a homogeneous mixture.
Some solute-solvent combinations are: example (solute state-solvent state) oxygen in nitrogen (gas-gas) carbon dioxide in water (gas-liquid) water vapor in air (liquid-gas) alcohol in water (liquid-liquid) mercury in silver and tin, dental amalgam (liquid-solid) sugar in water (solid-liquid) copper in nickel (MonelTM alloy) (solid-solid)
Solution is the mixture and the result of a solute and a solvent
No, a solution is a homogeneous mixture composed of two or more substances. The solute is the substance that is dissolved in the solvent. The solute can be a solid, liquid, or gas, and the solvent is typically a liquid, but can also be a gas or solid.
