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.
Copper is the solvent and tin is the solute.
It depends, if you are saying just bronze then its neither
Bronze is an alloy composed mainly of copper as the solvent and tin as the solute. The tin is dissolved in the copper to create the bronze alloy, giving it its distinctive properties such as increased strength and corrosion resistance.
Solute : Tin Solvent : Copper
Bronze is a metal alloy. Copper is the solvent and tin is one of the few solutes.
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.
I do know that a mixture of copper and zinc create braa but i do not know for sure which is the solvent and which is the solute. I belive the copper is the solvent and the zinc is the solute. Best of luck answering this question ! - I do know that a mixture of copper and zinc create braa but i do not know for sure which is the solvent and which is the solute.

It is an alloy, a form of bronze, usually approximately 4:1 ratio of copper to tin. It is not a solution.
It will be a solute only.
Solute!
The material dissolved in a solution is called the solute. It is typically present in a smaller amount compared to the solvent, which is the substance in which the solute is dissolved.
