If the solvent is a liquid, gases, liquids, and solids can be dissolved. Examples are:

  • Gas in liquid:
    • Oxygen in water.
    • Cation of ions). Note also that the visible bubbles in carbonated water are not the dissolved gas, but only an effervescence; the dissolved gas itself is not visible since it is dissolved on a molecular level.
  • Liquid in liquid:
    • Alcoholic Beverages are basically solutions of ethanol in water.
    • Petroleum is a solution of various hydrocarbons.
  • Solid in liquid:
    • Sucrose (table sugar) in water
    • Sodium chloride or any other salt in water forms an electrolyte: When dissolving, salt dissociates into ions.

Counterexamples are provided by liquid mixtures that are not homogeneous: colloids, suspensions, emulsions are not considered solutions.

Body fluids are examples for complex liquid solutions, containing many different solutes. They are electrolytes since they contain solute ions (e.g. potassium and sodium). Furthermore, they contain solute molecules like sugar and urea. Oxygen and carbon dioxide are also essential components of blood chemistry, where significant changes in their concentrations can be a sign of illness or injury.
