What happens to solute?
A solute is dissolved in a solvent.
Is chocolate a solute or solvent?
I don't know absolutely for certain but chocolate is an organic compound which probably means it has covalent bonding. Also is melts at a low temperature and forms a suspension in water which are characteristics of a simple molecular structure which would mean it is not ionic. No I don't think chocolate is an ionic compound.
What are some examples of ionic solutions?
An ionic solution is one that contains ions. Te ions are solvated, that is water molecules (if water is the solvent) surround the ions. the bonding is usually electrostatic in origin but some cations (positively charged ions) form stronger bonds with water molecules.
If sugar is dissolved in water which component will be the solute and which will be the solvent?
Water is the solvent, and sugar is the solute.
When a solute dissolves in water what chemically happens?
when a solute dissolves in water you can keep adding and stirring intill no more can dissolve. This is called a saturated solution.
The process by which an ionic solute dissolves in a polar solvent?
a process that occurs when an ionic solute dissolves
What happens when ionic bonds are put in water?
it is gonna dissolve in water water weaken ionic bonds
What is the solute solvent of a club soda?
The solvent is water. The solute is carbon dioxide, plus maybe a bit of salt.
What is the nature of solute of sodium chloride?
Sodium chloride is an ionic salt, very soluble in water.
Do ionic compounds act as the solute or solvent?
generally the solute
When ionic compounds are dissolved in water they are called?
Any other compounds dissolved in water may be properly called a "solute", and when the compounds are ionic they may also be called "electrolytes."
What tests you could use to discover if a compound were ionic or molecular?
Dissolve them in water. If the solution conducts electricity, then the solute is an ionic compound. If not, then it is a molecular compound.
Waters ability to dissolve ionic substances?
Water can dissolve ionic substances because in both substances the bond are very polar. When a solute is added to water, some of water's hydrogen bonds break as the water forms intermolecular bonds with the solute. Because ionic substances are polar, the new intermolecular bonds formed when they dissolve in water are quite strong, and can compensate for the energy lost when breaking the water's hydrogen bonds.
What happens when a solute dissolves in a liquid?
The particles of that solute go into the empty spaces around the water particles.
What happens to the ions in an ionic compound when dissolved in water?
An ionic compound in water is dissociated forming ions.
The water in a salt water solution is considered what?
"Salt water" is a solution because the water is the solvent and the salt is the solute. Salts dissolve readily in water because they're ionic, and therefore very polar. Water is polar as well, and tears the salt apart into its constituent ions.
What is the effect of dielectric constant of water on the solubility of the ionic salt?
Water has a very high dielectric constant so when an ionic salt is placed in water it ionizes and water molecules react with ions of solute and make a solution
