Yes. Since it contains a lot of oil, it will require solvents that will work with oil. Alcohol is one. There are a number of others, but there are limits on that number as regards what can be used in cooking. For solutions, fats and oils, glycerides and the like will yield a solution. Since mayo has a lot of oil in it and is immiscible in water and other "non-oily" substances, consider a "plan B" and look at what is called an emulsion instead of a solution (solvent plus solute). Oil and vinegar salad dressing form an emulsion when we shake the bottle, but darn it, they separate again. We need to stabilize the emulsion so it won't separate. Emulsion stabilizers can be added in limited quantity to effect the desired results.
The dispersed phase in mayonnaise is a liquid. Mayonnaise is an emulsion where oil droplets are dispersed in a liquid mixture of vinegar, egg yolks, and other ingredients.
Colloids are mixtures where tiny particles are dispersed throughout a continuous medium. Examples include: Milk (liquid in liquid) Fog (gas in liquid) Mayonnaise (liquid in liquid, emulsified) Gelatin (solid in liquid) Paint (solid in liquid) Smoke (solid in gas) Whipped cream (gas in liquid) Blood (solid in liquid, with cells suspended) Ink (solid in liquid) Marshmallow (gas in solid) Each example illustrates the diverse nature of colloidal systems in various states of matter.
solid liquid
Mayonnaise is an emulsion of vinegar and oil. The emulsifier is egg yolk. An emulsion is defined as the mixture of two immiscible liquids in which one is suspended in the other in microscopic droplets. A colloid is not specifically two liquids, it could be a solid evenly distributed throughout a liquid but not in solution.
It is a solid
No, mayonnaise is not a gas. Mayonnaise is a semi-solid or thick liquid.
The dispersed phase in mayonnaise is a liquid. Mayonnaise is an emulsion where oil droplets are dispersed in a liquid mixture of vinegar, egg yolks, and other ingredients.
A semifluid is a substance that has properties of both a liquid and a solid. It flows like a liquid but also exhibits some degree of resistance to flow, similar to a solid. Examples include toothpaste and mayonnaise.
Colloids are mixtures where tiny particles are dispersed throughout a continuous medium. Examples include: Milk (liquid in liquid) Fog (gas in liquid) Mayonnaise (liquid in liquid, emulsified) Gelatin (solid in liquid) Paint (solid in liquid) Smoke (solid in gas) Whipped cream (gas in liquid) Blood (solid in liquid, with cells suspended) Ink (solid in liquid) Marshmallow (gas in solid) Each example illustrates the diverse nature of colloidal systems in various states of matter.
All liquids take the shape of the container they are in. Ranch takes the shape of the container it is in. Therefore ranch is a liquid.
These colloids are called emulsions.

Mayonnaise is not a saturated lipid; rather, it is an emulsion primarily made of oil, egg yolks, and vinegar or lemon juice. The oils used in mayonnaise typically contain unsaturated fatty acids, which are liquid at room temperature. Saturated lipids, on the other hand, are fats that are solid at room temperature and contain no double bonds between carbon atoms. Thus, mayonnaise is composed mainly of unsaturated fats.
