Molecular solutes will not conduct electricity when dissolved in solution, and ionic solutes will conduct electricity when dissolved in solution.
Molecular solutes are composed of discrete molecules that remain intact when dissolved in solution, whereas ionic solutes dissociate into ions in solution. This leads to differences in electrical conductivity and colligative properties between molecular and ionic solutes in solution.
An aqueous solution specifically refers to a solution where water is the solvent. A solution in general is a homogeneous mixture where one or more substances (solutes) are dissolved in another substance (solvent), which could be a liquid, gas, or solid.
Ionic compounds have higher melting and boiling points than molecular compounds due to the strong electrostatic forces between ions. Ionic compounds are usually solid at room temperature, while molecular compounds can be solid, liquid, or gas. Ionic compounds conduct electricity when dissolved in water, while molecular compounds do not.
Molecular compounds in water form solutions where the molecules remain intact and dispersed individually. Ionic compounds, on the other hand, dissociate into ions when in water, resulting in conductive solutions due to the presence of charged particles. Additionally, molecular compounds generally do not conduct electricity in solution.
Penetrating solutes can cross cell membranes easily due to their ability to dissolve in lipids, while non-penetrating solutes cannot cross cell membranes easily because they do not dissolve in lipids.

Solutes dissolved in solvents create a solution. In this homogeneous mixture, the solute particles are evenly distributed throughout the solvent, resulting in a uniform composition. The properties of the solution can differ from those of the individual components, such as changes in boiling and freezing points.

Water is a solvent. Fruit, sugar, and all the other particles are solutes. The two make a homogenous mixture which is a solution!

A solute is not a mixture. A solute is the substance that is dissolved in a solvent to make a solution.
Aqueous solutions of ionic compounds consist of ions dissolved in water, while solutions of molecular compounds consist of intact molecules dispersed in water. Ionic compounds dissociate into ions in water, leading to electrolytic behavior, while molecular compounds usually do not conduct electricity in solution unless they ionize.
Osmotic pressure is a colligative property that occurs in solutions when a solute is dissolved in a solvent, creating a concentration gradient across a semipermeable membrane. Iodine, when dissolved in water, primarily exists as a complex (such as iodide ions or triiodide) rather than as a simple solute, which can affect its osmotic behavior. While osmotic pressure can theoretically be demonstrated in an iodine solution, the extent and behavior may differ from simpler, non-complexing solutes due to the nature of iodine's solubility and interactions in water.
A solute is a substance that is dissolved in a solvent to form a solution. The solute's particles are uniformly distributed within the solvent, resulting in a homogeneous mixture. The physical and chemical properties of the solution can differ from those of the individual solute and solvent, and the solute can affect the boiling point, freezing point, and osmotic pressure of the solution.
Ionic compounds have higher melting and boiling points than molecular compounds due to the strong electrostatic forces between ions. Ionic compounds are usually solid at room temperature, while molecular compounds can be solid, liquid, or gas. Ionic compounds conduct electricity when dissolved in water, while molecular compounds do not.
Molecular consists of multiple atomic orbitals
The 0.5M solution has a lower concentration of NaCl compared to the 2.0M solution. This means the 2.0M solution has more NaCl dissolved in the same volume of water. Consequently, the 2.0M solution will be more concentrated and have a higher osmolarity compared to the 0.5M solution.
