Give an example of a solution that contains a solid dissolved in a solid. Identify the solvent and the solute.

An example of a solution where a solid is dissolved in another solid is brass. Brass is an alloy made primarily of copper (the solvent) and zinc (the solute). In this case, copper is the solvent because it is present in a larger amount, and zinc is the solute because it is dissolved in the copper to form the brass alloy.
