If a solution has only two components, what can it be called?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Binary solution
A solution containing exactly two components is called a binary solution, so option A is correct. In a usual binary solution, one component is the solute and the other is the solvent. A ternary solution has three components, while a precipitate is an insoluble solid formed during a reaction or separation. “Multicomponent” is too broad to specify exactly two.
