On what basis is a solution called gaseous, liquid, or solid solution?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: State of solvent
The physical state assigned to a solution generally follows the state of its solvent, which is the continuous medium. A gas solvent gives a gaseous solution, a liquid solvent gives a liquid solution, and a solid solvent gives a solid solution. The solute state names the dispersed component but does not decide the overall state.
