The compounds water and ethyl alcohol are infinitely soluble to each other. This means that they can create a homogeneous solution with any combinations of their amounts. With the given above, the solvent in the mixture is the ethyl alcohol only by the fact that it has a greater volume than water. Thus, the answer is the third choice.
