Solids have the strongest bonds, liquids have medium bonds, and gases the weakest.

A solute is the solid that is dissolved in a liquid.
What is a solvent?
A solvent is the liquid that the solute is dissolved in.
What is a solution?
A solution is the mixture of a solute and a solvent
What is the difference between a soluble and insoluble solid?

A saturated solution is a solution that cannot dissolve anymore solute.
