Question
drag over the word that goes best with the image
In chemistry, a solvent is a substance that dissolves a solute (a chemically distinct liquid, solid or gas), resulting in a solution. In the image, the glass contains a liquid (likely water) which can act as a solvent to dissolve the substance being added from the spoon. An element is a pure substance consisting only of atoms with the same numbers of protons in their nuclei. A solution is a homogeneous mixture of two or more substances. But the arrow points to the liquid in the glass which is the solvent (the component that does the dissolving).
