Which is true about sugar dissolving in water Sugar is the solvent and water is the solute. Both sugar and water are solvents. Sugar is the solute and water is the solvent. Both sugar and water are so?

One is going to be the solvent and one will be the solute, they can't be both at the same time. You usually put sugar into something such as water or tea or soda. That makes the sugar the solute (goes into) and the other, like water, the is the solvent. A good way to remember this is that the solvent is the part of a solution present in the largest amount.
