Why can a solution be classified as a mixture?

1 answer

A solution can be classified as a mixture because it is composed of multiple substances that are physically combined. In a solution, the solute (the substance being dissolved) is uniformly distributed and dispersed throughout the solvent (the substance doing the dissolving) at the molecular level. This results in a homogeneous mixture where the individual particles of the solute are not easily discernible. Solutions can be made up of different types of solutes and solvents, and they can have various concentrations and properties.
