Answer:- B. Solvent molecules surround solute ions.
Explanations:- When an ionic solute that has positive and negative ions is dissolved in a solvent like water then the solute ions are surrounded by the water molecules in a way so that the highly electron negative oxygen atom of water is towards the positively charged ion of the solute and less electron negative which is hydrogen atom that has partial positive charge, surrounds the negatively charged ion of the solute.
Due to these forces made by the solvent molecules, the solute is broken into the ions and get dissolved in solvent.
