Gases are more easily measured by knowing the pressure, volume, and temperature of the gas. Seltzer water and ammonia water are two good examples of solutions of a gas in a liquid. Seltzer, or carbonated water, is the result of pressing carbon dioxide gas into water. Seltzer is used as the base liquid in any carbonated beverage. The bubbles in beer or sparkling wines are also due to carbon dioxide, but the CO2 is a natural product of the fermentation process, so it does not have to be added artificially. Ammonia water, also called ammonium hydroxide solution, is made from ammonia (NH3) being pressed into water. It is used as a weak base and as a cleaning material, particularly for glass.
