In which example is the type gas in liquid where the gas should be understood first in naming?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Soda water
Soda water contains gaseous carbon dioxide as the solute and liquid water as the solvent. Thus its component-state description is gas-in-liquid: the gas is the dissolved substance and the liquid is the medium. Air is gas-in-gas, brass is solid-in-solid, and camphor in nitrogen is solid-in-gas, so only soda water fits.
