Which option gives a correct example and reason for a gas in liquid solution?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Soda water, because carbon dioxide gas is dissolved in water.
Soda water is a gas-in-liquid solution because carbon dioxide is the gaseous solute and water is the liquid solvent. The classification depends on the states of the components, not merely on the appearance of the mixture. Air is gas in gas, brass is solid in solid, and camphor in nitrogen is solid in gas. Therefore option A gives both the correct example and the correct reason.
