Which is a simple example of a solid solution?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Brass
Brass is an alloy in which solid metals are uniformly mixed at the material level. Since the solvent or major medium is solid and the whole alloy is solid at room temperature, brass is used as a standard example of a solid solution. Soda water, ethanol-water and oxygen in water have water as a liquid solvent.
