Table salt or sodium chloride is indeed a solute. It will dissolve and disperse in water. In that context, water is a solvent.
The solvent is the water (chemical formula H2O). The solute is the salt (table salt, NaCl or another substance).
The solvent is the water (chemical formula H2O). The solute is the salt (table salt, NaCl or another substance).
The solute (NaCl) is dissolved in the solvent (water)
The solute is what's being dissolved (e.g., Table Salt) (The solvent is what the solute is being dissolved in, e.g., Water)
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.
A solution has a solute dissolved in the solvent. Examples: Sugar dissolved in water, table salt dissolved in water, oil dissolved in petrol (gasoline)
salt is the solute
Salt and the water is the solvent in which it is dissolved. P.S-There are many more dissolved substances, however salt is the main one.
a solute
A solute is the substance disolved in a liquid in solution; it is often solid. For example, NaCl, or table salt, is the solute in a salt water solution.
It depends- on temperature, stillness of the solute, and size of the salt grains. If everything is controlled, the smaller grains should dissolve quicker
Mostly NaCl, Sodium Chloride, or just typical table salt. However, like most things in the real world its not 100% NaCl
