What is Solute?

A substance that is dissolved in a solution is called a solute.

Characteristics of Solute

• A solution is a homogeneous mixture of two or more substances.
• The particles of solute in a solution cannot be seen by the naked eye.
• A solution does not allow beams of light to scatter.
• A solution is stable.
• The solute from a solution cannot be separated by filtration (or mechanically).
• It is composed of only one phase.

What is a Solution?

A solution is a homogeneous mixture of two or more components in which the particle size is smaller than 1 nm.

Properties of Solution

Different properties of solutions are as follows:

• It is a homogeneous mixture.
• Its particles are too tiny and have a diameter less than 1 nm.
• The particles are not visible to naked eyes.
• Particles don’t scatter a beam of light passing through it and hence the path of the light is not visible.
• Solutes are inseparable from the mixture and do not sediment. A solution is stable.
• The components of a mixture cannot be separated using filtration.
