salt is the solute
In a salt solution, the salt is the solute and the substance in which the salt dissolves is the solvent. For example, in a saltwater solution, salt (sodium chloride) is the solute and water is the solvent.
Solute, because it is the minor component in the solution and it is what dissolves in the solvent. For example: Salt Water - The salt is the solute that dissoles in the solvent, which is water.
The solute in table salt is sodium chloride.
No, salt is the solute and water is the solvent
the salt is the solute
The solvent is water, the solute is salt; solvent and solute form a solution.
Yes, salt dissolves in seawater, so it is a solute.
No salt is a solute
salt
Salt. The solvent is water.
To prepare a salt solution, dissolve the salt (solute) in water (solvent). The salt will fully dissolve in the water, creating a homogenous solution. The resulting liquid is now a salt solution, where the water is the solvent and the salt is the solute.
The solute is the substance that has been dissolved in the solvent. I.e. if salt is dissolved in water, the salt is the solute.
