Binary Solution is a homogeneous mixture of two components called as solute and solvent.
Solute is the component which is present in smaller proportion and is solid for solid in liquid solution and solvent is the component which is present in larger proportion and is liquid for solid in liquid solution.
For example: NaCl in water will have NaCl as solute and will be lesser in amount and water will be solvent and will be greater in amount.
Thus the statement that in a solution the solute is the substance present in the greatest amount is false.
