A solution is a homogeneous mixture composed of a solvent and a solute, where the particles are evenly distributed and indistinguishable at the particle level. Examples include lemonade and soda water, with various states such as gas in liquid and solid solutions like alloys. Solutions are stable, do not scatter light, and the solute cannot be separated by filtration.

4. A homogenous mixture of two or more substances is
called Solution. A solution is sometimes also called True
solution. Lemonade, soda water, salt water, sugar
solution, etc., are all examples of a solution.
In a solution, there is homogeneity at the particle level,
i.e. the particles of dissolved substances are evenly
distributed in the solution and are indistinguishable
from one another.

5. (Dissolving Phase) The component (usually
present in larger amounts) of the solution that
dissolves the other component in it, is called the
solvent.

There are two main components of a solution:
(Dissolves Phase) The component (usually present in
lesser quantities) of the solution that is dissolved in
the solvent is called the solute.

7. Aerated drinks like
soda water, etc., are gas
in liquid solutions. CO
(gas) as solute and
water (liquid) as
solvent.
A solution of iodine in
alcohol known as tincture
of iodine, has iodine (solid)
as the solute and alcohol
(liquid) as the solvent

9. A solution is a
homogenous mixture.
The particles of a solution are
smaller than 1nm (10 power -9 m)

10. Due to very small particles, they do
not scatter a beam of light passing
through the solution. So the path of
light is not visible in a solution
A solution is stable, i.e., the solute
particles do not settle down when left
undisturbed. The solute particles cannot
be seperated from the mixture by the
process of filtration
