In which example is the solute a solid but the final solution a liquid?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Glucose in water
Glucose is a solid solute, while water is a liquid solvent. When glucose dissolves uniformly in water, the mixture is classified as a solid-in-liquid solution and its final form is liquid. Air is gas in gas, brass is solid in solid, and chloroform in nitrogen is liquid in gas. Thus only option A satisfies both required states.
