Which statement correctly explains a liquid in solid solution?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Liquid solute is uniformly mixed in solid solvent

Therefore, the solute must be liquid and the solvent must be solid, with uniform mixing expected in a true solution. Option A states exactly this. B describes solid in liquid, C describes gas in liquid, and D describes liquid in gas.
