Actually, I don't think this question actually makes sense. Sterling silver isn't a solute or a solvent, it HAS solutes and solvents. A solute is a substance that dissolves and a solvent is a substance that makes it dissolve. So, in this case the solute is copper and the solvent is silver. I hope this answers your question! :)

Solute
the solvent for sterling silver is silver and the solute is copper-8%
The solute is mostly copper and the solvent is silver.
both are possible.
Usually it is copper but it can be a combination depending on the hardness wanted. .925 sterling has .075 of solute.
Silver is soluble in Nitric Acid producing silver nitrate.

Sterling silver is not a solution- it is a metal alloy. Not the same thing.

The solvent dissolves the solute. (The solute dissolves in the solvent.)
The solvent dissolves the solute. (The solute dissolves in the solvent.)
Bronze is an metal alloy and Copper is the solvent. Bronze is also a solid solution that solids melted and dissolved into each other. Ex. Steel,brass,bronze,sterling silver,gold,jewelry,dental arnalgam which is silver and mercury.
Gold silver alloy, when gold atoms are in majority
Pls answer this
The solute becomes dissolved in the solvent, while the solvent dissolves the solute.
