- A solution is defined as a homogeneous mixture. Is a small sample of air a solution? Is the atmosphere a solution?arrow_forwardIn a dilute solution of sodium chloride in water, the sodium chloride is the: a. solvent. b. solute. c. precipitate. d. reactant.arrow_forwardWhat kinds of solute particles are present in a solution of an ionic compound? Of a molecular compound?arrow_forward
- Distinguish between the solute and solvent in each of the following solutions: a saltwater [NaCl(aq)]; b sterling silver (92.5%Ag,7.5%Cu); c air about 80%N2,20%O2. On what do you base your distinctions? Sterling silver is an alloy of 92.5 silver and 7.5 another metal, usually copper.arrow_forwardAntifreeze is put into the water in an automobile to prevent it from freezing in water. What does the antifreeze do to the boiling point of the water, if anything? Ethylene glycol, HO-CH2-CH2-OH, is the most widely used automotive antifreeze.arrow_forward
