In chemistry, a solution is a unique type of homogenous mixture made of two or more substances. In such a concoction, a solute is a material dissolved in another material known as a solvent. The mixing process of a solution happens at a scale where chemical polarity influences are involved, resulting in exchanges that are specific to the solution.
The solution usually has the solvent state when the solvent is the more significant fraction of the mixture, commonly the case. A critical factor of a solution is the concentration, which is a measure of the quantity of solute in a certain amount of solution or solvent. A solution does not permit beams of light to scatter.
The solute from a solution can be separated by filtration, and the solution is stable. The naked eye cannot see the solute particles in a solution, and solvents can be gases, liquids, or solids. The solution has the same physical state as the solvent.
