Year 8 Chapter 2 Solution and Solubility QnA Answer

The document explains key terms related to solutions, defining solute as a solid that dissolves in a liquid solvent, and solvent as the liquid in which the solute dissolves. It provides examples of solids that dissolve in water, such as salt and sugar, and insoluble solids like pencils and keys. Additionally, it mentions acetone and ethanol as solvents used at home, and suggests that adding more solvent or increasing temperature can help dissolve solute in a saturated solution.
