Based on the physical states of the solute and the solvent, identify the incorrect match from the following examples of solutions:
Options
- AGas in solid : Solution of hydrogen in palladium
- BSolid in gas : Camphor in nitrogen gas
- CLiquid in gas : Chloroform mixed with nitrogen gas
- DLiquid in solid : Copper dissolved in gold
Correct answer
D. Liquid in solid : Copper dissolved in gold
Step-by-step solution
Solution of hydrogen in palladium is an example of a gas in solid solution, where hydrogen is the gas and palladium is the solid. Camphor in nitrogen gas is an example of a solid in gas solution, where camphor is the solid and nitrogen is the gas. Chloroform mixed with nitrogen gas is an example of a liquid in gas solution, where chloroform is the liquid and nitrogen is the gas. Copper dissolved in gold is an example of a solid in solid solution, as both copper and gold are solids at room temperature. An example of
