stir it in a solvent
a base is one that produces hydroxide ions
No, water does not dissolve into all solutes. Some solutes, such as nonpolar molecules like oil, do not dissolve in water because they are not attracted to the polar water molecules.
The effect of solutes on solution is that they make the solution reach saturation point when added in excess. The soluble solutes dissolve in the solution whereas the insoluble solutes do not dissolve in the solution.
They are called solutes
Generally polar solvents dissolve polar solutes and vice versa.
Yes, oil based paints and nail polish are considered nonpolar solutes because they do not dissolve readily in water, which is a polar solvent. Polar solutes dissolve in polar solvents, while nonpolar solutes dissolve in nonpolar solvents.
They are called solutes.
Mixing and temperature elevation
No. Ex: Oil
Speed is time and time is money. It is nearly always about economics. Also, companies do not like letting customers down and if material was required quickly, this would be another reason for wanting a solute to dissolve quickly.
Turpentine is a good solvent for paints.
This means that substances are more likely to dissolve in other substances with similar chemical properties. It is most often used when discussing polar and nonpolar solvents. For example, oil will not dissolve in water because oil is nonpolar and water is polar. Basically, a polar solvent will generally dissolve polar solutes and sometimes ionic solutes, and a nonpolar solvent will generally dissolve nonpolar solutes.
