In an solution of a carbonated beverage, the dissolved carbon dioxide is

a. saturated
b. precipitate
c. solvent
d. solute

Answer is: D. solute.

In aqueous solution, solvent is water and solute (in this example carbon dioxide CO₂) is a substance dissolved in water.

The amount of solute that can be dissolved in a solvent depends of chemical composition, temperature and pressure.

Solution has a uniform composition and is able to be separated by physical means.

The correct answer is D

Explanation:

A solute is a component of a solution that is typically present at a much lower concentration than the solvent. While a solvent is a medium in which the other components are dispersed or dissolved in, and it is a component that is significantly greater than the other components. In a carbonated beverage carbon-dioxide is present in small amounts of that beverage solution.

? you expect us to answer this? ? this is your schoolwork, i don't think we can with this, i think it would considering being

c. because step up transformer steps up the input voltage i.e increases the input voltage  

the number of turns are greater on the secondary side of step up transformer  

transformer does not handle dc current
