In this case, nitrogen is the solute as it is present in a smaller amount compared to oxygen in the mixture. The solute is the component that is dissolved in a solvent to form a solution.
In this case, the solute would be nitrogen since it is the substance that is present in the larger proportion (80%) compared to oxygen (20%). The solvent would be the medium in which these substances are dissolved, such as air or a gas mixture.
80% nitrogen, 20% oxygen however it's really 79% plus some decimals of nitrogen and 21% oxygen and a little moisture. But if the question is only looking for a basic answer, just use the top answer.
roughly 80% is nitrogen, 19% is oxygen. There are also small quantities of other gases etc.
The air (on ground level, not in a traffic jam!) is composed of ~80% N2, ~20% O2, 0-6% H2O (vary a lot), 0.03% CO2, 1% argon and then traces of other elements. The most abundant element is thus nitrogen N.
Nitrogen makes up roughly 80% of Earth's atmosphere (Oxygen makes up most of the remainder).
none of them are solutes
In this case, the solute would be nitrogen since it is the substance that is present in the larger proportion (80%) compared to oxygen (20%). The solvent would be the medium in which these substances are dissolved, such as air or a gas mixture.
About 80% of air is nitrogen (20% oxygen)
Earth. 80% Nitrogen & 20% Oxygen.
There is only one in our solar system - the Earth approx 80% nitrogen, 20% oxygen
About 80% Nitrogen and 20% Oxygen.
Nitrogen abt 80%, oxygen abt 20%
Air is roughly 80% Nitrogen and 20% Oxygen.
The Earth approx. 80% nitrogen 20 % oxygen
Air = which is roughly 80% Nitrogen and 20% Oxygen.
A mixture is obtained; 80 % N and 20 % O is air.
Oxygen (20%) and nitrogen (80%).
