Soot, or smoke, is composed of particulates--tiny pieces of a solid--suspended in gas, or air. It is solid, but acts like a gas. The particulates come from whatever fuel is being burned and are carried by the hot air produced by a fire.

nope, i think it is not a solid.. because in a solid/gas mixture the example is smoke. and smoke contains soot and ash. ash is a solid, not a gas.
