Group of answer choices The water is the solute portion of the drink. The instant coffee and sugar dissolve because they have no charged regions to repel the partial positive and partial negative regions of the water molecules. The instant coffee and sugar are solvents. You've just prepared an aqueous solution.

Answer 1

Answer: The statement, you've just prepared an aqueous solution is true.

Explanation:

When one or more number of substances are dissolved in a solvent like water then solution formed is called an aqueous solution.

For example, when a hot drink is made by dissolving a teaspoon of instant coffee and a teaspoon of sugar in a cup of hot water is an aqueous solution.

Here, both coffee and sugar are solute whereas hot water is the solvent.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement, you've just prepared an aqueous solution is true.
