A method for producing a semiconductor element and a chemical solution to be used in the method for producing a semiconductor element, the method including dry-etching or chemically-mechanically polishing a ruthenium-containing layer located as an uppermost layer of a substrate; and bringing a surface of the substrate into contact with a chemical solution thereby satisfactorily cleaning and removing a ruthenium residue formed on the surface of the substrate; and a chemical solution to be suitably used in the method for producing a semiconductor element.
