The copper sulfate is the solute and water is the solvent.
A solute and solvent make up a solution. The solute is the substance that is dissolved in the solvent to form the solution. The solvent is the substance in which the solute is dissolved.
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.
Ethanol is the solvent and sucrose is the solute.
The material most commonly called "hydrogen peroxide", especially by non-chemists, is a solution of the solute hydrogen peroxide in water as the solvent.
In a copper sulfate solution, copper sulfate is the solute and water is the solvent.
The solute in a copper sulfate solution is copper sulfate (CuSO4).
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.
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
A solute and solvent make up a solution. The solute is the substance that is dissolved in the solvent to form the solution. The solvent is the substance in which the solute is dissolved.
Bronze is a metal alloy. Copper is the solvent and tin is one of the few solutes.
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.
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
A solute is a substance that dissolves in a solvent to form a solution. The solvent is the substance in which the solute dissolves to form a solution. A solution is the final mixture resulting from the dissolution of a solute in a 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 solute is a substance that is dissolved in a solvent to form a solution. The solvent is the substance that dissolves the solute, while the solution is the homogeneous mixture formed by the solvent and solute.
