Which option contains examples related to solid solutions?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Brass, hydrogen in palladium, amalgam
Brass is a solid alloy, and palladium provides a solid medium in hydrogen-in-palladium. An amalgam is also treated as a metallic alloy involving mercury and a metal; when the metallic medium is solid, it is discussed among solid solutions. The other groups are respectively gaseous or liquid solutions, not solid-solution examples.
