Identify And Explain What Two Reasons Why Solutions Are Homogeneous Mixtures

Solutions are homogeneous mixtures. That will break into two groups: solvent and solute. A solvent in a solution is the dissolving medium. While the solute is the one being dissolved. “Substances that dissolve most readily in water include ionic compounds and polar covalent compounds(1).” This is because “Like dissolves Like” (2). This means that polar molecules will dissolve polar molecules, and non-polar molecules will dissolve with non-polar molecules. The reason why this occurs is because polar molecules can undergo dipole-dipole force attractions - these are simply the electrostatic attractions between the slightly positive and slightly negatively charged poles of each molecule. “Non-polar
