Which option contains only examples related to solid solutions?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Brass, bronze, hydrogen in palladium
A solid solution has a solid solvent. Brass and bronze are solid-solid alloys, and in hydrogen-in-palladium, solid palladium acts as the solvent for hydrogen. Thus every example in A is associated with a solid solvent. B and D use liquid water as solvent, while C consists of gaseous mixtures with gaseous solvents, so those groups do not qualify.
