of course solute.
E.g sugar
No, not every solvent can dissolve every solute. The ability of a solvent to dissolve a solute depends on the chemical properties of both the solvent and the solute.
It is called a solvent, the substance being dissolved is a solute.
A solvent cannot dissolve. You can dissolve a solute in a solvent, e.g. you can dissolve sugar in water - sugar is the solute, and water is the solvent. You cannot dissolve water though.
- Sand does not dissolve in water- Plastic does not dissolve in water- metals do not dissolve in water
It depends on the polarity of the solute and the solvent. If the solute is polar, then it will only dissolve in a polar solvent If the solute in nonpolar, then it will only dissolve in a nonpolar solvent
im sorry, i dont know the answer to the question, this is why i asked it.
A liquid that can dissolve things is a solvent. The thing being dissolved is a solute.
Solvent
Acetone is the best solvent to dissolve wood glue.
When we dissolve a substance in another liquid, we use the terms; Solute for the solid substance (or powder), and the term Solvent for the liquid which dissolves the solid, or powder. Example: if Shellac flakes are dissolved in Methylated Spirit, then the Shellac is called the Solute and the Meth.Spirit is called the Solvent. Answer to your question is:- Bronze can never be a solvent. It is a Solute if it is put into a liquid that will dissolve it. There is a liquid solvent that dissolves bronze. I think it will dissolve if put into strong acid such as sulfuric acid or nitric acid.

No; the solute is dissolved in the solvent.
