I'm not sure what you mean, commercial gasoline is a blend of linear and aromatic hydrocarbons averaging about 8 carbon atoms per molecule with various additives for various purposes (e.g. keep engine clean, reduce pollutants, stabilize mixture, improve starting in cold weather).

Gasoline is a solvent, but if you was a solvent for cleaning parts there are far safer ones that work as well.

Well, darling, in the glamorous world of chemistry, gasoline is the solute and the solvent is usually a mixture of hydrocarbons. So next time you're filling up your car, just remember it's not just fuel, it's a whole chemistry party happening in your tank. Stay fabulous!

Ah, gasoline is a fascinating thing. The solute in gasoline is a mixture of hydrocarbons like octane and heptane, which give it its combustible properties. The solvent in gasoline is actually a bit tricky, as gasoline itself is a mixture of different chemicals that act together. Just like when we mix different colors on our palette to create a beautiful painting, the solute and solvent in gasoline work together to make it the powerful fuel that it is.

For this mixture of gases the terms solute/solvent are inadequate.
