To be considered a solution, it has to be a homogeneous mixture. Where you have liquids, they may not dissolve into one another, such as water and oil, and you have a clear division where the liquids don't mix. Where as gases, is they are in a closed system, are homogeneous because there is nothing there to stop the molecules from occupying a relatively homogeneous arrangement.
