Question

Match each description to the correct term.

a liquid that dissolves another substance.
a chemical that is dissolved.
a value used to describe the amount of one substance dissolved in another.
a liquid consisting of one substance dissolved in another.

Answer 1

a liquid that dissolves another substance- solvent

a chemical that is dissolved-solute

a value used to describe the amount of one substance dissolved in another- concentration

a liquid consisting of one substance dissolved in another- solution

Step-by-step explanation:

A solution is formed when a substance is dissolved in another. The substance that is dissolved in another is called the solute while the substance in which it dissolves is called a solvent. A combination of solute and solvent leads to the formation of a solution.

The amount of solute that dissolves in a solvent is called the molarity or concentration of the solution.

Answer 2

The correct answers are "solvent, solute, concentration, solution".

Step-by-step explanation:

There are different terms used to describe the elements that form a liquid that contains more than one substance. Solvent is defined as a liquid that dissolves another substance, for instance water is the solvent of a mixture of sugar dissolved in water. In this example, sugar will be the solute, a chemical that is dissolved. Concentration is a term used to describe the amount of one substance dissolved in another, for example weight/weight, weitght/volume, molarity, etcetera. Solution is a liquid consisting of one substance dissolved in another, in this case, the sugar dissolved in water.
