What is an example of a gas gas solution?

Air. (Oxygen, Carbon Dioxide)


Is a solution of water droplets in air an example of a liquid dissolved in gas?

No. For something to dissolve it has to form ions. Your question is misleading because you can't have a solution of water. Water is the solute. Water droplets in air is either a vapour or a gas, but they exist independently of other gases in the atmosphere.


Explain dry corrosion with an example?

Dry corrosion, also known as atmospheric corrosion, occurs when metal is exposed to oxygen in the air without the presence of moisture. This process can result in the formation of oxide layers on the metal surface, leading to rusting or degradation. For example, iron exposed to dry air can form iron oxide (rust) over time, weakening the metal and affecting its structural integrity.


What is an example of a solution in which the solute and solvent are not easily distinguishable?

An example of a solution where the solute and solvent are not easily distinguishable is a metal alloy, such as bronze. In bronze, copper is the solvent and tin is the solute, but they are completely mixed at the atomic level, resulting in a uniform composition throughout the mixture.


Why are you most likely to get shock in dry air than humid air?

Dry air is a better insulator than humid air, allowing static electricity to build up more easily. When you shuffle your feet on a dry carpet, for example, the accumulated charge is more likely to discharge as a static shock when you touch a conductive object. Humid air helps dissipate this static charge more effectively, reducing the likelihood of a shock.
