This document discusses mixtures and solutions. It defines a mixture as having two or more substances mixed together but not combined chemically, like sand and water. A solution is a type of mixture where the parts blend uniformly, like sugar dissolving in water. A solution has a solute, which is the smaller amount that dissolves, and a solvent, which is the larger amount that dissolves the solute. Several examples of solutions and their solutes and solvents are provided, such as sugar water where sugar is the solute and water is the solvent. The document notes that in a solution there is typically more of the solvent than the solute. It also defines solubility as the maximum amount of solute that can
