Water is the solvent and acetic acid is the solute.
The substance that is dissolved in a solution is a solute. A solvent is the dissolving medium in a solution.
1. A solvent and a solute are both parts of a solution.2. The solvent is mostly in majority and, it dissolves a solute in itself to make a solution.
solution ------- Sugar dissolved in water: sugar is the solute, water is the solvent; and the solute plus the solvent - is a solution !
The solute. Solute - the substance (solid, liquid or gas) to be dispersed in the solvent. Solvent - the liquid in which the solute is dissolved. Solution - a mix of the solute and solvent.
Salt is the solute. Water is the solvent in a salt solution.
Vinegar is basically a solution of acetic acid in water. Therefore acetic acid is the solute and water is the solvent. See this site for information about dissolving and solutions: http://www.bbc.co.uk/schools/ks3bitesize/science/chemistry/physical_changes_8.shtml
The solvent is usually the larger part of the solution which dissolves the solute. The solute is the smaller part which gets dissolved. So as an example, seawater is a solution. The solvent is water and the solute is salt and traces of other minerals. Vinegar is also a solution. Again, water is the solvent and glacial acetic acid is the solute. To do acid values in resin chemistry, methanolic KOH solution is usually the titrant. In this example, methanol is the solvent and KOH is the solute.

A hot tea is a solution of tea extact and sugar in water; tea extact and sugar are the solutes, water is the solvent.Vinegar is a solution of acetic acid (solute) in water (solvent).

Solution: a solute (or more) in a solvent. Solute: the dissolved substance in a solvent. The solute must be soluble in the solvent.

A solvent and a solute.
The solute. Solute - the substance (solid, liquid or gas) to be dispersed in the solvent. Solvent - the liquid in which the solute is dissolved. Solution - a mix of the solute and solvent.
The solvent is the substance which dissolve the solute; for a sugar solution water is the solvent and sugar the solute.
