solute can be solid, liquid or gas.One should remember that state of solution is determined by state of solvent.Ex- in a mixture of 1 mole Hg and 1 mole metal the solute is Hg and solvent is metal as solution which is an alloy is solid.

What is the sugar in a mixture of sugar and water?

Firstly, a mixture of sugar and water is known as a solution. A solution is a solute completely dissolved in a solvent. A solute is a compound (can be in any state) which can be dissolved in a solvent(which also can be in any state). The resulting mixture is known as a solution. A solution must be a homogeneous mixture in one phase only. This means that both the solute and solvent must be in the same state. In this example, sugar is in the aqueous state which water is in the liquid state, which makes them essentially in the same phase. Sugar, in this case, is dissolved into water to form sugar water. Hence, sugar is is the solute.
