Options
- Athe volume of the solution increases and the volume of the solvent decreases
- Bthe volume of the solution decreases and the volume of the solvent increases
- Cthe volume of the solution and the solvent does not change the volume of the solution does not
- Dchange and the volume of the solvent decreases
Correct answer
A. the volume of the solution increases and the volume of the solvent decreases
Step-by-step solution
