Which of the following statements about solutions is NOT true?
Select one:
a. A solution has the same properties throughout.
b. Solutions contain a solvent dissolved in a solute.
c. The solute in a solution can be a solid, liquid, or gas.
d. Solutions are mixtures.

A solution is a homogeneous mixture of two or more substances. A solution may exist in any phase.A solution has two components.The minor component solute is dissolved in a major component called solvent.

Any option that claims against this definition is wrong.

option A:

Since the solution is homogeneous,it has same properties throughout.

option B:

Solutions contain solute dissolved in solvent not solvent dissolved in solute.

option C:

The solution can be in any phase.

option D:

Solutions are a kind of mixtures because they have no chemical interactions among the solute and solvent particles.

So,option B is wrong.

Which of the following statements about solutions is NOT true? Select one: a. A solution has the same properties throughout. b. Solutions contain a solvent dissolved in a solute. c. The solute in a solution can be a solid, liquid, or gas. d. Solutions are mixtures.
