Solute and solvent in humid air

Asked by fionskie6526

Answer (1)

In humid air, the solute is water vapor and the solvent is dry air (a mixture of gases like nitrogen and oxygen). Humid air is a mixture where water vapor (the solute) is dispersed in dry air (the solvent). The water vapor is present in smaller amounts, which is why it's considered the solute, while dry air is in larger proportion, acting as the solvent.
