What I Can Do
Activity 3.1.4 Give Example! Give two examples of the topics listed below
that are present in everyday life.
A. Solute
B. Solvent
C. Solution
D. Concentration
Answer (1)
The answer is C. Solution Here's why: Solutions are mixtures that are present everywhere in our daily lives. • Solute: The substance that dissolves in a solvent. For example, sugar is a solute in a sugar-water solution. • Solvent: The substance that dissolves the solute. For example, water is the solvent in a sugar-water solution. • Solutions: The uniform mixture formed when a solute dissolves in a solvent. For example, sugar water is a solution. • Concentration: The amount of solute dissolved in a given amount of solvent. For example, a concentrated sugar solution has a lot of sugar dissolved in it, while a dilute solution has less sugar. Examples of Solutions in Everyday Life: • Saltwater: Salt (solute) dissolves in water (solvent) to form a saltwater solution. • Sugar: Sweetened beverages: Sugar (solute) dissolves in water (solvent) to make a sugary drink. • Air: Oxygen, nitrogen, and other gases (solutes) are dissolved in the air (solvent). • Cleaning solutions: Detergents, soaps, and other cleaning agents (solutes) are dissolved in water (solvent). • Medicines: Many medicines are solutions where active ingredients (solutes) are dissolved in water or other solvents.
