Question

Solvent is the component of a solution

• A. which is present in large excess
• B. which is responsible for the chemical properties of solution
• C. which determines the physical state of solution
• D. both (1) and (3)

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

Option (4)

Answer 2

Explanation:

• The solvent is the component present in large excess in a solution.
• It also determines the physical state of the solution (e.g., if the solvent is liquid, the solution is liquid). Thus, both statements (1) and (3) are correct.
