Is solute always a solid?
Not necessarily. It may also be a gas or a solid. In any mixture, the component that is present in the largest proportion is known as a solvent. For example, in our atmosphere, Nitrogen (78% by volume) is the solvent. This is a gaseous mixture.
What type is substances dissolve easily in water?
Water is called "the universal solvent" because many, many substances can dissolve in it. However, there are some that can dissolve easier than others: salt and sugar are some of the quickest. Liquids and liquid chemicals also "dissolve" very easily in water, i.e. the combine with water molecules to create a solution. Hope this helped!!
What is the cause of viscosity in liquids and gases?
Viscosity in gases is due to the exchange of momentum by gases with each other. It is also due to diffusion
What substance does dissolve?
Sodium can dissolve. Citric acid can also dissolve into water.
What is the difference between gases solids and liquids in terms of volume?
Gases have the greatest volume. Liquids are denser than gases. Most solids are slightly denser than liquids. One important exception is ice. Ice is solid water, but because of its crystal structure, ice is not as dense as liquid water.
How can gas be a part of mixture?
There are three ways. Some mixtures are gases themselves, and air is the most common one. Some mixtures are partly gases and partly liquids. Also, gases can dissolve into liquids, like oxygen in water.
Why do the changes of state occur in solids liquids and gases?
You breathe gases, you drink liquids (usually water and water mixtures), and you do just about everything else with solids. you live inside a solid house, use a solid computer, etc.You also swim in water for fun.
Can gases cannot dissolve in water?
To find out the answer to this question, first you must understand about polarity. A polar molecule is one which has both: -polar bonds (ie. the intramolecular covalent molecular bond between both atoms are of different electronegativities, hence one gains a partially positive charge, delta +, and the more electronegative atom gains a partially negative charge, delta -). -the delta + and delta - centres to not coincide (and therefore do not cancel each other out) (need to know molecular structure to do this) Both of these mean that the molecule has an overall dipole (+ive and -ive side) Polar molecules are soluble (can dissolve) in other polar solvents. Non-polar molecules are soluble in other non-polar solvents. A polar substance is NOT soluble in a non-polar substance and vice versa. WATER IS A POLAR SUBSTANCE. Therefore, gases which are ALSO POLAR can dissolve in water.
What are some examples of how gases are different from liquids and solids?
I can only tell you that gases are does not have a difinite shape and volume . E.g air / nitrogen / carbon dioxide / water vapour / . . .

Are liquids soluble or insoluble in water?
Many liquids dissolve in water, and many do not. In chemistry , there is a rule "like dissolves like", so if the nature of the liquid is similar to water i.e. highly polar, it will be soluble. This rule is not infallible. Butanol is very polar, but is only about 2% soluble in water.
How are gasses and liquids similar in shape and volume?
ANSWER unlike solids, both liquids and gases can change their shape to fit the container in which they are held. however, gases can also change volume unlike liquids.

Is the boyle's law applicable to liquids?
Boyle's Law is not applicable to liquids because liquids have strong inter-molecular forces than those of gases.. also gas laws only applyy to gases
3 properties of matter?
The three properties of matter are solids, liquids, and gases.
What is the cause of viscosity in liquids and gases?
Viscosity in gases is due to the exchange of momentum by gases with each other. It is also due to diffusion
What is the similarities of gas liquid and fluid?
Gases and also liquids are fluids.
