No, a solution does not have to be a liquid. A solution can be a mixture of any two substances without chemically reacting to each other. The substance of which there is more is the solvent, and everything else in the solution is called solute. Another common solution is the air in the atmosphere, of which nitrogen is the solvent and oxygen, carbon dioxide, ozone, and every other gas in the atmosphere is solute.

∙ 10y agoThe addition of carbon in a solution of iron (liquid at that time) gives us steel.
This is sometimes referred to as a solution for it is not merely a mixture, nor yet a separate chemical compound.

Well, no, because a cup of tea with sugar is a solution, yet sugar is not a liquid. I mean, I'm speaking from common sense, there might be another answer.

Do liquids expands when heated?
Only one liquid expands when heated and thats water the most common liquid.
Which tool can measure only one quantity of liquid?
pipet
Are bubbles a solid liquid or a gas?
Balloons are solids. They are filled with gases.
Is vapor solid liquid or gas?
At room temperature and up to around 100o F, Vaseline is a semi-solid, or quasi-solid, which has characteristics of both a solid and a liquid. It melts at around 100o F, and behaves only as a liquid.
Is liquid usually denser than gas?
There has not been a gas denser made or existing and not only that, gas is always frequently moving and does not shape up like liquid.
Is this true solutions can only be made with liquid solvents?
Yes to be a solvent it has to be a liquid
Are solutions found only in the liquid form?
yes
How are solvents taken?
solvents are sniffed only
How do solvents work?
The answer is "It dissolves something else" on Apex
Are all solvents liquid?
No.all liquids are not solvent water is only universal solvent if you take a cup of water and then pour some oil on it you can observe it is not a solvent
Are solvents a depressant or hallucinogen or stimulant?
Only some organic solvents have a hallucinogen effect.
Is amonium hydroxide a liquid metal?
Ammonium hydroxide is neither a metal nor a liquid. It is an compound consisting of the nonmetals nitrogen, hydrogen, and oxygen that only exists in small amounts in solutions of ammonia dissolved in water. The only liquid metal is mercury.
What factor determines if two liquids will be miscible or immiscible?
Molecules that do not dissolve in other molecules that are similar. If the molecules are not similar, they will not mix. Therefore, you have an immiscible liquid. Polar solvents will only dissolve polar compounds. (e.g. NaCl in H2O soln) Nonpolar solvents will only dissolve nonpolar compunds. (e.g Vitamin A in an oil) However, certain solvents are miscible with both polar and nonpolar solvents. An example of this would be ethanol (CH3CH2OH), which is miscible with water(polar) and hexane(nonpolar).
Is benzene soluable?
Benzene is only soluble in other organic solvents. It is not soluble in water or other polar solvents.
Do phospholipids spontaneously form Liposomes in Nonpolar solvents?
No-- Liposomes are only formed in polar solvents (i.e. water)
Why cannot copper nitrate and lead nitrate solutions be separated using a separation funnel?
Because copper nitrate and lead nitrate solutions are miscible with one another, and form only a single liquid phase when mixed. Separation funnels are useful for separations only of liquids that form at least two liquid phases when mixed together.
Why lah reactions can be done in ethers only why not in other solvents?
Solubility. LAH is not soluble in other solvents which would otherwise be appropriate.
