| Introduction |
|
| A Solution is a homogeneous mixture of two or more chemically non-reacting substances called components. The composition of the components can be varied with in certain limits. |
| |
| When two components are present - Binary solution. |
| |
| When three components are present - Ternary solution. |
| |
| When four components are present - Quaternary solution. |
| |
| A component whose physical state is same as that of the resulting solution and that is present in excess is called solvent. |
| |
| The component, which is in lesser quantity is called solute. |
| |
| Therefore a solution is made up of a solvent and one or more solute. |
