Answer to Problem 48A

The solution is a homogenous mixture that is made up of two components mixed proportionally. The two components of the solution are solute and solvent among which solvent is a dissolving medium that dissolves the solute in it.

Explanation of Solution

The two components are solute and solvent and their differences are as follows:

    SoluteSolvent
    A substance that gets dissolved in a solvent to form a solution.The solvent is a substate that acts as a dissolving medium in the solution.
    The boiling point of the solute is mainly higher than that of the solvent.The boiling point of the solvent is usually lower than that of the solute.
    The amount of the solute is usually lesser than that of the solvent.The amount of solvent is always more than that of the solute as it is a dissolving medium.
    The state of a solute can or cannot be similar to that of the solution.The solvent is the main component that defines the state or phase of the solution.
