Expert Solution

Step 1

Introduction to solution

In a homogenous mixture of two or more components, a solution is defined as having particles less than one nanometer in size. Solutions come in many forms, such as sugar and salt solutions, soda water, etc. In a solution, each element appears as a separate phase. Particles are uniformly dispersed and exhibit particle homogeneity. This explains why a bottle of soft drink maintains a consistent flavor throughout.
