The copper sulfate is the solute and water is the solvent.
Certain copper salts and compounds are soluble in water. The solute is the copper compound that dissolves in the liquid. The solvent of copper is the liquid that the compound dissolves in.
The best and most common solvent is water. Other polar solvents such as liquid ammonia should work, but that's hardly convenient.
one word water
0.125 Molar solution! Molarity = moles of solute/Liters of solution Algebraically manipulated, Moles of copper sulfate = 2.50 Liters * 0.125 M = 0.313 moles copper sulfate needed ===========================
Adding solvent will make a solution more diluted. Think of it this way. Take water (solvent) and dissolve salt into it (solute). In order to dilute or increase the ratio of solvent to solute, you would add more water.
a solution
Ethanol is the solvent and sucrose is the solute.
It is a solution. A solution is a type of mixture in which a solute is dissolved in a solvent. A solution is a homogeneous mixture. In the case of an aqueous solution of sodium nitrate, the sodium nitrate is the solute and the water is the solvent.
water
A mixture of a solute and a slovent will create a solution. If we combine salt and water, the salt (the solute) will dissolve in the water (the solvent) to form that solution. Note that a mixture is different from a solution in that in a mixture, the two substance remain distinct, like with sand and water.
If the water being added is pure, and the solvent in the copper sulfate solution was water, then no, this should not result in a chemical reaction. The visual change is due to dilution of the solute
Temperature of a solution is a condition that controls the solubility of solute in a solvent. Take copper sulfate for example. At 100° Celsius (C) 203.3 grams (g) can be dissolved in 100ml of water; at 0° C, only 31.6g can be dissolved in water. If you continue to boil the solvent (water) away, the copper sulfate will come out of solution because the amount of water is lessened creating a supersaturated state that forces the solute out of the solution (in other words, the lesser amount of liquid water can't hold that much copper sulfate in solution.) Removing the heat source and allowing the solution to cool has the same effect. As it cools,the copper sulfate will come out of solution. So, basically, concentration of the solute at a given temperature is the controlling factor. Boiling off the solvent increases the concentration; cooling the solvent decreases the concentration the solvent can hold. Both ways create a state of supersaturation leading to crystallization at all the temperatures in the given range.
the solvent
Bronze is a metal alloy. Copper is the solvent and tin is one of the few solutes.
The substance that is dissolved in a solution is a solute. A solvent is the dissolving medium in a solution.
Solution: a solute (or more) in a solvent. Solute: the dissolved substance in a solvent. The solute must be soluble in the solvent.
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 !
A solvent and a solute.
The solute is zinc and the solvent is copper, as there is more copper in the solution than zinc.
