Some components of coffee are soluble in hot water (and they are solutes), some components are not soluble.
Solvent = WATER Solute = COFFEE and CREAM
water is the solvent, coffee is the solute
Well the answer for this question was that when you take water and the other ingredient to mix them together was to be a coffee, that was solvent and solute. while solution was the coffee. the suspension was nothing.
The solvent is water; the solute is ground roasted coffee beans (in addition to sugar, salt, cream and whatever else you prefer to add)!
okay let's say your putting sugar into coffee the solute is the sugar and solvent is the coffee. The Solvent coffee dissolves the solute "sugar" homogeneously amongst the solution. So the answer to your question is the solvent does the dissolving
The solvent is water; the solute is ground roasted coffee beans (in addition to sugar, salt, cream and whatever else you prefer to add)!
The solute is what is being dissolved. The solvent is what the solute is dissolved in. Take coffee for example. The solute would be the coffee, and the water would be the solvent. In fact, water is able to dissolve so many substances that it's called the universal solvent.
solvent e.g hot water dissolves the solute (coffee powder) to make the solution instant coffee so the solvent is what dissolves the solute
A solute is a solid that can dissolve, and a solution is a solid that has dissolved in a liquid. Since ground coffee beans are insoluble, coffee is neither a solute nor a solution. Instead, coffee is considered a mixture of dissolved extracted taste and aroma substances from the coffe beans.
I am not sure of the exact make up of coffee, however in a simplistic view, coffee would be solute, water would be solvent. However, you can say more scientifically anyway that caffeine is solute. If you take sugar, sugar is also a solute.
A solute is the substance being dissolved (example, sugar). The solvent is the liquid into which is it dissolved (example, coffee)A solute is present in a smaller amount and a solvent is present in a greater amount in a solution.
A solute is something which is dissolved in a solvent, which creates a solution (sounds confusing, but spending a little time remembering this can help a lot in the long run!) So, a cup of coffee is a solution made up of instant coffee powder and water. The water is the solvent, and the coffee powder is the solute. Anything added to the water, such as sugar, is also a solute, as it is dissolved in the solvent. This might sound confusing, but basically the water is the solvent, and anything added to it which disolves is a solute! Hope this helps!
