Saltwater is a solution because you can get fresh water and some salt and mix it and then you get saltwater.
In a basic saltwater solution, the water molecules would be the solvent and the salt molecules would be the solute.
Solute.
This is a solution of sodium chloride (NaCl) in water.
It would be the solute.
No, salt is the solute and water is the solvent
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.
The solvent is the water (chemical formula H2O). The solute is the salt (table salt, NaCl or another substance).
A solution contains a solvent and a solute.The substance which is dissolved is called the solute.The substance into which the solute dissolves is called the solvent.Example: A saltwater solution contains salt as the solute and water as the solvent.
It is a supersaturated solution. These solutions are formed when a saturated solution with excess solute in it (like saltwater with extra salt on the bottom) is heated until all the solute dissolves. When the solution is cooled, the extra solute remains in solution--thus supersaturated because more solute is dissolved than should be at that temperature. The seed crystal provides an opportunity for the extra solute to come out of solution.
The pure water is the solvent and the minerals, salts that dissolved in the water (to make salt water) are called the solute. I assumed you were talking about sea/salt water? If you are talking about common salt dissolved in water the the salt is the solute and the water is the solvent.
The solvent is the water (chemical formula H2O). The solute is the salt (table salt, NaCl or another substance).
A solute is the substance that is dissolved in a solution, while a solvent is the substance that does the dissolving. The solute is typically present in a smaller quantity compared to the solvent. For example, in a saltwater solution, salt is the solute and water is the solvent.
