Solutes raise and lower the boiling points of solvents. :)
The random movement of molecules in a solvent causes the solvent molecules to collide with the surface of the solid solute. This results in the solute particles being surrounded by solvent molecules, leading to the process of dissolution.
When the forces attracting solvent particles to each other are broken, solute particles provide energy in the form of heat to help the solvent particles separate. This process is called dissolving, and it results in the solute particles becoming evenly distributed in the solvent to form a solution.
The amount of solute that can be dissolved in a specific amount of solvent at a given temperature is its solubility.
The solubility of a substance at a given temperature can be expressed as the maximum amount of solute that can dissolve in a solvent at that temperature, typically in grams of solute per 100 mL of solvent. It can also be expressed in terms of molarity or molality, which represent the concentration of the solute in the solution.
The solute becomes less ordered. (apex)
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.
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.
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.
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.

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.
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.
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 boiling point elevation, freezing point depression, osmotic pressure, and vapor pressure changes.
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.
This depends on the nature of solvent and solute, concentration of solute, temperature, etc.
the solvent is the water; while the solute is the sugar
