If a gas dissolves in a solid metal, what type of solution can it be?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Gas in solid
Here the gas is the solute and the solid metal is the solvent or host medium. Since the solvent is solid, the classification is gas in solid, and the overall material is treated as a solid solution. Gas in liquid would require a liquid solvent, gas in gas would require a gaseous solvent, and option B reverses the solute-solvent states.
