What is the main key to identifying categories such as solid in liquid, liquid in solid, and solid in gas?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Read the states of solute and solvent separately.
The safest method is to identify the solute and solvent first and then note each state separately. In the usual wording, the first state refers to the solute and the second to the solvent, so word order matters. Memorized examples may not cover new cases, and colour cannot define this classification.
