Solute Defined: Understanding the Solid Part of a Solution

The solid part of a solution is called the solute.

Here's a breakdown:

* Solution: A homogeneous mixture of two or more substances.

* Solute: The substance that dissolves in a solvent to form a solution.

* Solvent: The substance that dissolves the solute.

For example, in a sugar solution, sugar is the solute and water is the solvent.
