Answer 3

solvent - having assets in excess of liabilities; able to pay one's debts.
solute - the minor component in a solution, dissolved in the solvent.

Answer 4

Here's another! (Just change up the words a little!):
The solute is mainly the solid particles found in the mixture. On the other hand, the solvent is the liquid portion of a mixture that dissolves the solutes. When the solutes and solvent are added together, they form a solution.
