water is the universal solvent
the solute is the substance that gets dissolved in the water.
however water isn't always the solvent, but most often it is
to answer your question no, the solute dissolves in the water which is the solvent
When you dissolve salt into water, the salt is the solute while the water is the solvent.
actually the substance in which a thing dissolves is called a solvent, and the things which dissolves in the solvent is called a solute. and water is called a universal solvent cuz it can dissolve a very wide range of solutes with a slight differende in their solubilities( that is the capacity to dissolve). fr eg in the case of sugar solution water is a solvent.
A water solvent is a substance that has the ability to dissolve other substances. Water is often referred to as the "universal solvent" because it can dissolve a wide variety of solutes due to its polar nature and ability to form hydrogen bonds with other molecules.
Salt is not a universal solvent. Water is often referred to as the universal solvent due to its ability to dissolve a wide variety of substances. Salt, on the other hand, is a solute that can dissolve in water or other solvents to form a solution.
The solute is the thing that dissolves, in this case the sodium hydroxide. The solvent is the thing that dissolves it, in this case the water. The result is neither solvent nor solute, but a solution. It could be used as a solvent for some other material.
A solvent cannot dissolve. You can dissolve a solute in a solvent, e.g. you can dissolve sugar in water - sugar is the solute, and water is the solvent. You cannot dissolve water though.
- Sand does not dissolve in water- Plastic does not dissolve in water- metals do not dissolve in water
Water is the solvent.
The best solvent of NaCl is water.
When you dissolve salt into water, the salt is the solute while the water is the solvent.
Water is the solvent.
because there are 2 totally different types of molecules, you have the polar and apolar molecules. the polar molecules will only dissolve in a polar solvent, the apolar moleculesin a apolar solvent. this is the reason why oil doesn't mix with water. oil is apolar and water polar

The term universal solvent means that most things dissolve in it. So, since water is the universal solvent, most things do dissolve in water.
A substance is 'insoluble in water' if it will not dissolve in water, although it may dissolve in another solvent.
It is a solvent liquid. For example, water is a solvent as it can dissolve sugar crystals (and many other things).
its the universal solvent because it dissolve in water and the dipole charteristics makes it a universal solvent
