Which option correctly identifies both aqueous solution and liquid solution?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Salt in water
An aqueous solution specifically has water as its solvent. In salt water, water is also liquid, so the same sample is both aqueous and a liquid solution; salt is the solute. Hydrogen in palladium and zinc in copper have solid solvents, while air is a gaseous mixture without water as its solvent. Therefore only option A has both required classifications.
