Define the term solution. How many types of solutions are formed? Write briefly about each type with an example.

A solution is a homogenous mixture of two or more than two substances whose composition can change within a certain limits.  A solution of two substances is called binary solution.

In binary solution, the component which is present in smaller amount is called solute and other one is called solvent.

Types of solutions and there example:-

         first component is solute and second one solvent

1.    Solid in solid              -stainless steel (C and Fe )

2.    Liquid in solid             - water and sodium carbonate (10H2O+Na2CO3  )

3.    Gas in solid                 -H2 in Pd

4.    Solid in liquid             -salt water

5.    Liquid in liquid           -alcohol in water

6.    Gas in liquid               -O2 in water

7.    Solid in gas               -Camphor in N2 gas
   
8.    Liquid in gas              - moisture

9.    Gas in gas                 - O2 and N2 gas in air
