Answer 1

the answer is D .. it's a mixture between a solute and a solvent

Answer 2

Answer;

D. It is a mixture between a solute and solvent.

Explanation;

-A pure substance is a substance that cannot be physically separated. it is only made up with one atom or molecule, such as oxygen. The purity of a substance is the measure of the extent to which a given substance is pure.

-A solution is a homogeneous mixture that is made when one substance (solute ) dissolves in another substance (solvent). Therefore a solution is not a pure substance as it is made up of two substances (solute and solvent)
