In which condition is a solid solution most likely to form?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: When solvent is solid
A solid solution is formed when the continuous medium or solvent is solid and the components are uniformly mixed. Alloys such as brass illustrate this idea. A gaseous mixture has a gas solvent, while sediment indicates that particles have not remained dissolved and uniformly distributed. Water as a solute does not by itself define a solid solution.
