Which is the solvent and solute? A solution is prepared by mixing 5.000 g of water with 23.66 g of t-butanol (C8H10O) to give a final solution of 37.46 L.
I know this is probably easy but I'm getting mixed responses from my friends.

Consider the concentration of each constituent,
are the resultant concentrations.
Thus, the likely answer is that water is the solvent. This was likely a trick question because seemingly there is more t-butanol than water, although the molar quantity is less.
