Some components of coffee are soluble in hot water (and they are solutes), some components are not soluble.

∙ 11y agowater is the solvent, coffee is the solute
Solvent = WATER Solute = COFFEE and CREAM
The solvent is water; the solute is ground roasted coffee beans (in addition to sugar, salt, cream and whatever else you prefer to add)!
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.

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
solvent e.g hot water dissolves the solute (coffee powder) to make the solution instant coffee so the solvent is what dissolves the solute
The original crystals are classified as the solute in this scenario. The hot water is the solvent that dissolves the coffee crystals, forming a homogeneous mixture known as coffee.
Solvent= Water Solutes: Instant coffee powder, Sugar
The solute is the substance that dissolves in the solvent to form a solution. The solvent is the substance that dissolves the solute. In a solution, the solute is present in a smaller amount compared to the solvent.
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!
Dissolving is a familiar process. Salt, for example, dissolves readily in water, as does sugar in coffee. On a molecular level, dissolving consists of the molecules of a solute -- salt or sugar -- encountering and pairing up with the molecules of a solvent -- water or coffee. Only when a successful pairing is made can the solute dissolve into the solvent. To increase the rate at which a solute dissolves, you must increase the rate at which molecules within the solute can encounter and subsequently pair with molecules within the solvent.
