A solvent (from the Latin solvō, "I loosen, untie, I solve") is a substance that dissolves a solute (a chemically distinct liquid, solid or gas), resulting in a solution. A solvent is usually a liquid but can also be a solid or a gas. The quantity of solute that can dissolve in a specific volume of solvent varies with temperature. Common uses for organic solvents are in dry cleaning (e.g., tetrachloroethylene), as paint thinners (e.g., toluene, turpentine), as nail polish removers and glue solvents (acetone, methyl acetate, ethyl acetate), in spot removers (e.g., hexane, petrol ether), in detergents (citrus terpenes) and in perfumes (ethanol). Water is a solvent for polar molecules and the most common solvent used by living things; all the ions and proteins in a cell are dissolved in water within a cell. Solvents find various applications in chemical, pharmaceutical, oil, and gas industries, including in chemical syntheses and purification processes.

A 3.1 L sample of hydrogen <u>d. contains the same number of molecules</u>
as 3.1 L of carbon dioxide at the same temperature and pressure.
This is the fundamental principle of <em>Avogadro’s hypothesis</em>: equal volume of gases at the same temperature and pressure contain the same number of molecules.
The sample of carbon dioxide has a <em>greater mass</em>, a <em>greater number of atoms</em>, and a <em>greater density</em>, than the sample of hydrogen.
