Smoke generally represents which type of state arrangement?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Solid in gas
Smoke is made of very fine solid particles, such as soot, carried and dispersed in air. Since the dispersed particles are solid and air is gaseous, smoke is described as a solid-in-gas dispersion. It is not gas in solid or liquid in liquid. Smoke is commonly discussed as an aerosol or colloidal dispersion rather than a true solution.
