Which statements are true of solutions? they contain solutes and solvents. they always have only one solute per solvent. their particles must be evenly distributed. they may contain solid, liquid, and gas simultaneously. they are always easy to distinguish from colloids. they are homogeneous matter. they are pure.

Explanation:

When two or more substances are mixed together in such a way that their particles are evenly distributed throughout the mixture then it is known as a solution.

Basically, a solution is a homogeneous mixture which can be present in any phase.

A solution contains both solute and solvent.

A colloid is defined as a substance in which solute particles are microscopically distributed throughout the solvent. In a colloid both solvent and solute are present in liquid phase.

Hence, a solution can be easily distinguished from colloids.

Therefore, we can conclude that following statements about solutions are true:

explanation:

metals have excess of electrons whereas non-metals have deficiency of electrons. thus, in order to gain stability metals easily donate their electrons to the non-metals.

for example, electronic configuration of sodium is and electronic configuration of phosphorous is .

when a phosphorous atom and sodium atom combine together then sodium will donate is extra one electron to the phosphorous atom. as a result there will be formation of ionic bond between sodium and phosphorous.

the reaction will be as follows.

there, are three sodium sodium atoms and each of them will donate its one extra electron to phosphorous atom. thus, the sub-shell of phosphorous gets completely filled.  

thus, we can conclude that electrons are transferred from atoms of sodium to atoms of phosphorous. this transfer makes the sodium atoms donate one electron and the phosphorous atoms to gain one electron. as a result, the sodium and phosphorus atoms strongly attract each other.
