Choosing a type of remover is determined by the user's preference, and often the price or quality of the remover. The most common remover is acetone. This
Solvent solvent-solute mixture consists of a single phase with all solute molecules occurring as "solvates" (solvent-solute complexes), as opposed to separate continuous phases as in suspensions, emulsions and other types of non-solution mixtures. The ability of one compound to be dissolved in another is known as solubility; if this occurs in all proportions, it is called miscible. In addition to mixing, the substances in a solution interact with each other at the molecular level. When something is dissolved, molecules of the solvent arrange around molecules of the solute. Heat transfer is involved and entropy is increased making the solution more thermodynamically
