Use the following scenario
answer the question
Antonio is experimenting with solutions. He takes a large beaker of distilled water and dissolves salt, and then sugar.
Has Antonio created a solution or a mixture? If it is a solution, Identity the solute(s) and solvent(s).
(1 point
By dissolving salt and sugar in water, Antonio made a solution Solutions can have many solvents, but only one solute. In this solution, salt and sugar are solvents, and water is the
solute
Antonia created a mixture because solutions can only have one solvent, but he used salt and sugar as solvents.
Antonio dissolved salt and sugar in water to form a solution Solutions can have many solutes, but only one solvent. In this mixture, salt and sugar are solutes, and water is the solvent.
By combining three ingredients, Antonio made a mixture. Solutions can only consist of one solvent and one soluto.
