What will adding solute to pure solvents cause?

Adding solute to pure solvents will cause the solute to dissolve in the solvent, forming a solution. This process can alter the properties of the solvent, such as its boiling point, freezing point, and osmotic pressure, depending on the amount and nature of the solute added.


Can every solvent dissolve every solute?

No, not every solvent can dissolve every solute. The ability of a solvent to dissolve a solute depends on the chemical properties of both the solvent and the solute.


How is massed conserved when adding a solute to a solvent?

If you weigh the solute, and then weigh the solvent, and then add the solute to the solvent and weigh the solution, you will find that the sum of the weights of the solute and solvent is equal to the weight of the resulting solution. So mass is conserved.


If more solvent is added to a solution?

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.

What effect does adding a solute have on the freezing point of a sloution?

Adding a solute to a solution lowers its freezing point, a phenomenon known as freezing point depression. This occurs because the solute particles interfere with the formation of the solid structure of the solvent, requiring a lower temperature to achieve freezing. The extent of this depression depends on the concentration of the solute and its properties, following colligative properties principles.


What happens to an solute?

In a solution, a solute is the substance that is dissolved in the solvent. The solute particles disperse evenly throughout the solvent due to random molecular motion. This results in a homogeneous mixture with uniform properties.


How can the energy of the molecules of a solute and solvent be increased?

The energy of molecules in a solute and solvent can be increased by adding outside energy, say, heat, for instance.


The physical properties of a solution that differ from those of its solute and solvent include freezing point boiling point and what?

The physical properties of a solution that differ from those of its solute and solvent include boiling point elevation, freezing point depression, osmotic pressure, and vapor pressure changes.


What is the maximum amount of solute that can be dissolved in a solute at a particular temperature?

This is known as the solubility of the solute in the solvent. When you reach the maximum it is know as the saturation concentration. Adding any more solute will not dissolve in the solvent.


What explains their solutions properties?

This depends on the nature of solvent and solute, concentration of solute, temperature, etc.


What is the solvent and solute of sugar water?
