A solution is a homogeneous mixture comprising a solvent (typically the major component) and one or more solutes (substances dissolved in the solvent).
The solutes dissolve at a molecular level, resulting in a uniform distribution. Solutions can exist in various states, such as liquid, gas, or solid, depending on the phases of the solvent and solute.
Key factors influencing solution properties include concentration, temperature, and pressure.
Solutions play a pivotal role in chemistry and daily life, from the dissolution of substances in water to the formulation of pharmaceuticals and the preparation of various chemical reactions.
