Which of the following describes an aqueous solution? a mixture of nonpolar molecules dissolved in a polar solvent a mixture of polar molecules dissolved in a nonpolar solvent a mixture of some compound dissolved in water None of these a mixture of water dispersed in an ionic compound
An aqueous solution is in which any compound dissolved in water. Here water is the solvent and exists in more quantities than solute. Among the options following can be considered an aqueous solution
a mixture of some compound dissolved in water.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Follwing are not aqueous solution
a mixture of nonpolar molecules dissolved in a polar solvent => No water
a mixture of polar molecules dissolved in a nonpolar solvent => No water
a mixture of water dispersed in an ionic compound => Contians water but dispersed (very small quantities)
