The substance that is dissolved in a medium, to form a solution. The distribution of particles in a solution is uniform. The components of a solution to not separate on standing. A solution cannot be separated into its components by filtration. For any given solute and solvent, it is possible to make solutions of many different compositions.
Solutions are almost always transparent.
Solutions can be separated into pure components. A solution that holds more solute in the solvent than it can normally hold at a given temperature. Concentration units Concentration. The amount of solute dissolved in a given quantity of solvent. Qualitative terms for concentration are dilute or concentrated.
