Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -A small quantity of a salt is stirred into a liter of water until it dissolves. In the resulting mixture, the water is (1) the solvent, (2) the solute, (3) dispersed material, (4) a precipitate. When the salt dissolves in water salt is solute and water is solvent.
Detailed explanation-2: -In a solution, the substance which is dissolved is called a solute and the substance in which the solute is dissolved is called a solvent. To obtain salt solution, salt is mixed in water and hence salt is the solute and water is the solvent.
Detailed explanation-3: -The salt dissolved in water is a homogeneous mixture, or a solution (Figure 3.5. 3).
