When a mixture of sand and water has been filtered is the sand the solute?
When a solid dissolves in a liquidforminga solution the solid is referred to as a solute and the liquid as a solvent. In the case of a filtered mixture, the filtered solid is referred to as the residue.
Which solvent can be removed from insoluble solute?
sand and water
What is a mixture containing an insoluble solute called?
By definition a solute can not be insoluble. Ergo, there are no mixtures containing an insoluble solute.
How would you separate sand from water as a mixture?
Not sure what is meant by mixtures? But, the sand and water can be heated to evaporate off the water, which can be condensed back into water. This will leave the sand behind.
Is sand a mixture or compond?
Sand is made form a mixture of mineral grains (mainly quartz or calcite) which are themselves compounds.
What is a mixture of a solute and a solvent?
A mixture of a solute and a slovent will create a solution. If we combine salt and water, the salt (the solute) will dissolve in the water (the solvent) to form that solution. Note that a mixture is different from a solution in that in a mixture, the two substance remain distinct, like with sand and water.
When a mixture of sand and water has been filtered is the sand the solute?
When a solid dissolves in a liquidforminga solution the solid is referred to as a solute and the liquid as a solvent. In the case of a filtered mixture, the filtered solid is referred to as the residue.
Which solvent can be removed from insoluble solute?
sand and water
Is sand a solute or a solvent?
i think sand is a solute
How is a suspension different from a solution?
The particles are bigger in a suspension, and the solute is not dissolved in the solvent but is dissolved in a solution suspension example- sand in water, sand is the solute and water is the solvent solution example- sugar in water, sugar is the solute and water is the solvent
What is a solute in science?
A solution is a mixture of a solute and a solvent. A common solvent is water and an example of a solute is salt (sodium chloride). Adding salt to water results in a salt solution, sometimes called a saline solution. A solution will be in one phase, normally a liquid but solutions can be found as gasses and as solids. Note that a mixture of two substances that do not form a single homogeneous substance is not a solution. Sand and water don't make a solution and a mixture of dry sugar and salt also don't make a solution.
What is a mixture containing an insoluble solute called?
By definition a solute can not be insoluble. Ergo, there are no mixtures containing an insoluble solute.
What kind mixture of sand and water?
heterogeneous or you can say solute and solventA mixture is some combination of substances combined physically. A mixture is said to be heterogeneous if the different parts are visible or unevenly distributed, such as when sand is mixed with water.A mixture of sand and water is called a heterogeneousmixture

What is in between a solution and a suspention?
A solution is where the particles of a solute are dispersed evenly throughout the solvent while in a suspension, the particles of the solute are not dispersed evenly eg. Sand and water
What are some non- examples of solvent?
This is an odd question. Anything that isn't a solvent is a NON-example, so wood is not a solvent.
Is water a mechanical mixture or solution?
Water is a solvent. However, if you happened to put something in water that is not soluble, such as some sand, then you would have a mechanical mixture. So you can get either, with water.
