Question

I'm confused on how to tell what a solution is?
Identify which of the following are considered solutions.

I. A medicine that says "shake before using"
II. Rubbing alcohol
III. Italian salad dressing
IV. A soda pop drink
V. Pasteurized milk
VI. Black coffee
Select one:
a. II, IV, and VI
b. II, IV, V, and VI
c. I, II, IV, and VI
d. IV, V, and VI

Answer 1

a solution is composed of 2 things:

1. a solvent (or mixture of solvents)
2. solute or several solutes (which must be able to be dissoluted in the solvent)

Answer 2

So you would say a solution is homogeneous? So would the answer be C?

Answer 3

yeah, it needs to be able to be dissolved, and that makes it homogenous

Answer 4

C is right

Answer 5

Thanks!
