In which option is the solvent gaseous but the solute is not solid?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Chloroform in nitrogen
In chloroform in nitrogen, nitrogen is the gaseous solvent and chloroform is a liquid solute. Thus the solute is not solid. Camphor in nitrogen has a solid solute, salt in water has a liquid solvent, and hydrogen in palladium has a solid solvent. Therefore option B uniquely satisfies both conditions: gaseous solvent and non-solid solute.
