Ethanol mixed with water forms which type of solution?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Liquid in liquid
Ethanol is a liquid and water is also a liquid. Because ethanol and water can mix uniformly, the resulting mixture is a liquid-in-liquid solution, with one liquid acting as solute and the other as solvent depending on their relative amounts. The remaining choices incorrectly introduce a solid or gaseous component. Therefore A is correct.
