Answer: Option (2) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
A solution consists of a solute and a solvent. A solute is present in less amount as compared to the solvent in a solution.
When forces attracting solvent particles are broken down then particles of the solvent move away from each other.
As a result, spaces will be formed between the solute particles and solvent molecules can easily react with it.
Thus, we can conclude that when forces attracting solvent particles to each other are broken then space for the solute in the solvent is provided for a solution.
