Air is an example of which type of solution?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Gas in gas
Air is a homogeneous mixture of several gases, including nitrogen, oxygen, and small amounts of other gases. The solvent or major medium is gaseous, and the other gaseous components are distributed in it. Therefore air is classified as a gas-in-gas solution. The other choices require a liquid or solid solvent, which air does not have.
