I understand the answer to the question "Is it possible to have Volume(solution) < Volume(solvent) + Volume(solute)?" is "yes" -- but it is possible that adding a solute causes the solvent to contract so much that the volume of the solution is less than the initial volume of the solvent?
An ideal answer would include either a specific example of such a case, or an explanation of why it is impossible.
If the above is not possible, is it possible for the volume of the solution to equal the initial volume of the solvent?
