    Solute is a particle which gets dissolved in a solution. It is usually smaller than solvent in quantity.

    Solvent is a particle which dissolves Solute in a solution. It is usually larger than solute in quantity.

    In your case above, Calcium chloride is in less quantity, and thus, Calcium chloride shall be called solute.
