Item26 Item 26 An emulsion is classified as a specific type of Multiple Choice colloid. suspension. solution. Item28 Item 28 Which of the following statements accurately describes the solutes within a solution? Multiple Choice Water is the universal solute, and solutes are more abundant in solutions than solvents are. The solutes are not visible, do not scatter light, and do not settle if the solution is left standing. Solutes are greater than 1 millimeter in size, and will settle out of solution if the mixture is left standing. Solutes are between 1 nanometer and 1 millimeter in size; they do not scatter light but will settle out of solution if left standing.
