Does a solvent dissolve in a solute to make a solution?

No, it is the solute that dissolves in the solvent to form a solution. A solvent is a substance in which a solute can dissolve to create a homogenous mixture, known as a solution. The solute is the substance being dissolved, while the solvent is the medium in which the solute dissolves.


Which of these is the substance being dissolved solvent solute solution and solubility?

The substance being dissolved is the solute. The solvent is the substance in which the solute dissolves to form a solution. Solubility refers to the maximum amount of solute that can dissolve in a solvent at a given temperature.


What is the substance that makes something dissolve?

The substance that makes something dissolve is called a solvent. A solvent is able to break down the particles of another substance, called a solute, by surrounding and dispersing them in its solution.


How does stirring faster the solubility of solutes in a solvent?

Apex - It makes the water molecules bump into the solute more. ^.^


Increasing temperature affects how quickly a solid solute dissolves because?

Increasing the temperature makes it easier to dissolve the solute. As the temperature is increased the vibratory motion of the atoms increase and they start moving further apart. This motion makes it easier to dissolve solute in it .


What is sterling silver a solute or solvent?

Actually, I don't think this question actually makes sense. Sterling silver isn't a solute or a solvent, it HAS solutes and solvents. A solute is a substance that dissolves and a solvent is a substance that makes it dissolve. So, in this case the solute is copper and the solvent is silver. I hope this answers your question! :)


Why do you use hot water to dissolve a dye?

Generally, warming a solvent (like water), makes it faster (easier) to dissolve a dye.


What are two conditions that determine the mass of solute that will dissolve in a given mass of solvent?

The temperature: Increasing temperature makes the particles move faster. Heat energy is transferred by the movement of the particles. Because the solvent particles are moving faster, they bump into the solute.Stirring: Moves all the particles around do the solvent particles bump into the solute particles.


What makes a solution?

Solute and solvent


Does agitating a solution make it dissolve faster?

Agitating a solution can make it dissolve faster by increasing the contact between the solvent and the solute, allowing for more rapid mixing and dissolving. The movement helps to distribute the solute particles more evenly throughout the solvent, speeding up the dissolution process.


What is the solute and solvent of fiber glass?

Fiberglass has one solvent and one solute. Its solute is the glass itself that makes up about 99 percent of its composition. The solvent is the fiber, which makes up about one percent of its composition.


What 3 things that makes solute dissolve faster than solvent?

Factors affecting the solubility:1. the nature of solute/solvent (chemical composition, polarity)2. temperature3. pressure4. stirring5. surface area of the solute6. some added compounds7. amount of the solute 8. the geometry of the beaker
