Answer :

Ans : Solute :
The component of the solution present in smaller amount is called solute. It is also defined as the substance that gets dissolved in the solvent.
Example :
Glucose is solute in glucose solution.
Solvent :
The component of the solution present in greater amount is called solvent. It is also defined as the substance that dissolves the solute to make solution.
Example :
Water is solvent in glucose solution.
Solution :
A solution is defined as a homogeneous mixture of two or more substances. A solution has two components Solute & Solvent.
Example :
10% Glucose solution in water.
Types Of Solution :
There are nine different types of solutions that can be formed between the three states of matter.
Aqueous Solution :
A solution is defined as aqueous solution in which water is solvent.
