Glucose is the solute and water is the solvent. (Answer C)
Mixtures: Substances that are composed of several types and non-permanent comparison substances from elements and compounds.
The mixture is a material consisting of two or single substances. The material we meet every day is almost all mixed. We often make a mixture of ingredients, for example when we make coffee or sweet tea.
The mixture is divided into three types, namely:
• Homogeneous mixture = solution
• Heterogeneous mixture = suspension, and
• A mixture that is in a state between suspension and solution = Colloid
The solution is a mixture of two or more substances consisting of solutes and solvents. The particle size of the solution is very small, less than 1 nm, so it cannot be seen using ultra microscopes. and can not be distinguished between solute and solvent medium. Substances in the solution cannot be separated by filtration.
For example sugar solutions, we cannot tell which sugar or water in a sugar solution. Some examples of solutions are salt solutions, acid-base solutions, and others.
The solution is a homogeneous mixture and has the same composition in each part.
The solution consists of solvents (solvents) and solutes (solute)
Usually, components that are in large quantities are considered as solvents.
So if we make a sugar solution, Glucose is the solute and water is the solvent. (Answer C)
