I Briefly described the uses of solvents and solutions. I have made four groups ( Uses of solvents and solution in homes, uses of solvents and solutions in agriculture, uses of solvents and solutions in industries, uses of solvents and solutions in medicine.) That is all for now, I hope it helps you in your exams!

1. Uses of
Solvents
and
Solutions

2. Solvents & Solutions
 Solvents:
1. A solvent is a substance that dissolves
another substance forming a solution.
 Solutions:
1. A solution is a mixture formed when
one or more solutes dissolve in a
solvent.

3. In Homes
Water as a solvent is used for drinking,
cooking, washing, bathing, cleaning and
dissolving detergents.
Household cleaners like bleach are
solutions, they help us to make our
houses clean. Beverages such as fizzy
drinks, mineral water and tea are
solutions.

4. In Agriculture
Water as a solvent is used in pesticides
and herbicides to dissolve the mineral
salts and fertilizers so that plants can
absorb them quickly.
In hydroponics, the roots of plants are
immersed in solutions containing
dissolved mineral salts.

5. In Medicines
A mixture of different medicines may be
needed to treat a disease, however we
cannot mix them directly so we need a
solvent such as water to combine them.
Medicines are mostly bitter, the ones for
children are made sweet by adding sugar
solutions in them. Ex: Tandegyl.

6. In Industries
Turpentine as a solvent are used in the
production of paints, inks and dyes.
Water as a solvent is used in the making
of food, textiles, soaps and detergents.
Alloys are solid solutions that are used in
the manufacture of cars, aerospace and
other vehicles.
