Question
when salt dissolves completely in water, which term best describes the role of water in the salt - water mixture? (1 point)
concentration
molarity
solvent
solute
Brief Explanations
In a solution, the solvent is the substance that dissolves the solute. Here, water dissolves salt, so water is the solvent. Concentration and molarity are measures related to the amount of solute in the solution, not the role of water. The solute is the substance being dissolved (salt in this case).
