Which statement correctly differentiates gas in liquid and liquid in gas?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: The first has liquid solvent and the second has gaseous solvent
In gas-in-liquid, the first word identifies the gaseous solute and the second identifies the liquid solvent. In liquid-in-gas, the liquid is the solute and the gas is the solvent. Thus changing the order changes the solvent state and the overall solution classification. The other options incorrectly assign the same solvent or an unrelated solid state.
