Sometimes you can see them and sometimes not. It all depends what the particles are made of and their size.

The solute has essentially become a part of the solvent (water in this case). In order to see the "particles" you would need to separate the solvent from the solute. An example of this would be to boil the solution until the water evaporates, and you are again left with your original solute.

you can not see them because they are already mixed.

Because it's dissolved. When a polar or ionic compound dissolves in water, it breaks down into its various elements, which are too small to see.

Because these solids are now dissociated in ions.

What is the solution if you mixed the solute and solvent?

You obtain a solute solution in the desired and possible solvent.


What are particle solutions?

Solute particles are the particles of solid material that are being placed into a solvent. A solute dissolved in a solvent makes a solution.


What are the componentsn of solution?

A solution contain: - a solvent (possible a mixture of solvents) - a solute (one or more dissolved substances in the solvent)


What is the difference between a solute and solvent?

In a solution, the particles which are present in larger quantity are called solvent and the particles which are present in smaller quantity are called solute. For example, in aqueous NaCl solution: NaCl is the solute particle and H2O is the solvent.


Name and distinguish between the two components of a solution?

Solute: the dissolved substance Solvent: the liquid in which the solute is dissolved Example: in brine sodium chloride is the solute and water is the solvent.


A solution in which as much solute as possible is dissolved in a solvent is what?

Saturated.


Is a saturated solution a heterogeneous or homogeneous mixture?

No. If a substance is soluble, it will dissolve in a solvent, which means you will not be able to visually distinguish it. This would be a solution, which is a homogenous mixture.


Is there only one solute in a solution?

No, there can be many solutes in a solution, but only one solvent.


In a solution the substance in which the solute dissolvent?

the solvent


What is a substance that does the dissolving in a solution?

It is a solvent that dissolves in a solution.


What is the difference between dispersed and solubilized?

Dispersion: when any solids particle of very small size i.e. in micrometer are allowed to mixed in any solvent then these particle get dispersed in the solvent. particle do not mixed with the solvent but they are dispersed in the solvent completely and after some time these particle get settle down. eg. of dispersion: dispersion of gas molecule in the air. dispersion of the pigment in solvent. while in solublization process the particle are in nanometer range and they get completely mixed with the solvent . after the solublization process the particle cannot be seperated back from the solvent. eg. solublisation of the drug in the solvent in drug delivery process.etc.
