A. Solute

B. Acid

C. Solvent

D. Base

The correct answer to this question is Solute

Step-by-step explanation:

Amanda's experiment involves adding a solid (salt) into a liquid and then mixing both to form a mixture categorized as a solution because one substance has disintegrated in another. Moreover, in this mixture, the liquid is considered as the solvent because this dissolves or disintegrates the salt and the salt is considered as the solute (substance dissolved). In this context, the liquid dissolved the salt or solute in Amanda's solution or mixture.
