What are the solutes in air and what are the solvents?

Solutes are substances dissolved in a solvent.


Which substance in the air is the solvent and which substances are the solutes?

In the air, oxygen and nitrogen are considered solutes, while the solvent is mostly composed of gases such as nitrogen, oxygen, argon, carbon dioxide, and water vapor. Oxygen and nitrogen are the major components of air, making them the solutes in this mixture.


What are two ways that solutes affect the properties of solvent?

Solutes lower the freezing point and raise the boiling point of a solvent! :)


How do molecular solutes differ from ionic solutes when dissolved in solution?

Molecular solutes dissolve as whole molecules and do not dissociate into ions, while ionic solutes dissociate into ions when dissolved in solution. Molecular solutes do not conduct electricity in solution, whereas ionic solutes can conduct electricity due to the presence of free ions.


What is the solute and solvent of the air?

The solvent: for air is nitrogen, which makes up about 78% of the atmosphere. The solutes: in air are Gases including oxygen, argon, carbon dioxide, water vapor, and a variety of other, trace gases.


What are the effects of solutes on soutions?

The effect of solutes on solution is that they make the solution reach saturation point when added in excess. The soluble solutes dissolve in the solution whereas the insoluble solutes do not dissolve in the solution.


What factor besides the temperature affects the boiling point of water?

Air pressure also affects the boiling point of water. The higher the air pressure, the higher the boiling point.


Are solutions all solids?

Not all solutes are solids.


What a solvent for both polar and nonpolar solutes?

Acetone is a good solvent for both polar and nonpolar solutes due to its ability to form hydrogen bonds with polar solutes and dissolve nonpolar solutes through dispersion forces.


What is the difference between solution and solutes?

A solution contains one or more solutes dissolved in a solvent.


Solutions with low concentrations of solutes are concentrated?

Solutions with low concentrations of solutes are called diluted.


Are polar solutes soluble in nonpolar solvents?

No, polar solutes are generally not soluble in nonpolar solvents.
