Which of the following statement is NOT correct about solution?
Options
- AThe three states of matter solid, liquid and gas may play the role of either solute or solvent.
- BThe component of solution which constitute smaller part is called solute.
- CWhen water is solvent, the process of solvation is known as hydration.
- DTrue solution is a heterogenous mixture of two or more substances with fixed composition.
Correct answer
D. True solution is a heterogenous mixture of two or more substances with fixed composition.
Step-by-step solution
A true solution is a homogeneous mixture with consistent properties. Filtration cannot separate the solute from the solution in a true solution. The solute's particle size is around the same as the solvent's, and the solvent and solute move through the filter paper together. A true solution is a homogeneous mixture of two or more substances in which the particle size of the material dissolved (solute) in the solvent is less than 10-9 ~m or 1 ~nm . True solution is exemplified by a simple sugar solution in water.
