Solutions

Solutions can be considered as homogeneous mixtures which contain two or more than two chemical substances. The chemical substance which is the greater part is defined as solvent. And the chemical substance that is dissolved in a solvent is referred to as solute. Solution chemistry plays an important role in chemistry since it supports many commercial applications of solutions.

Rubbing alcohol is often used as a disinfectant and sometimes as a component of handsanitizers. If you were to purchase a bottle of rubbing alcohol at a store, it would most likely sayisopropyl alcohol or isopropyl rubbing alcohol, although it is also called isopropanol.
