Solid solution is mixture of two crystalline solids. The mixing is done by combining two solids after melting them into liquids and then cooling the result to form a new solid. Examples such solutions include steel (a combination of carbon and iron), and bronze, which is combination of copper and tin.
Examples of solid solutions include sterling silver (silver and copper), brass (copper and zinc), and steel (iron and carbon). These solid solutions form when components are dissolved into each other at the atomic level in a solid state.
No, not all solutions are liquids. Solutions can be liquids, gases, or solids. For example, air (a gas solution of oxygen, nitrogen, and other gases) and brass (a solid solution of copper and zinc) are both examples of solutions that are not in liquid form.
The solid part of a solution is called a solute.
The solid part of a solution is called a solute.
A saturated solution

Air (gas) Steel (solid) Gasoline (liquid)
Salt water, sugar water.
Ice is a solid and water is a liquid, so an ice cube floating in a glass of water would be a solid in a liquid solution. Lava is molten rock, which would also be a solid in liquid solution.
A solution can exist as a solid, liquid, or gas. Examples include alloys (solid solutions), soda (liquid solution), and air (gas solution). Solutions are defined as homogenous mixtures of two or more substances.
No, not all solutions are liquids. Solutions can be liquids, gases, or solids. For example, air (a gas solution of oxygen, nitrogen, and other gases) and brass (a solid solution of copper and zinc) are both examples of solutions that are not in liquid form.
The solid part of a solution is called a solute.
Hydrogen (H2) in palladium metal.
Some examples of solid liquid solutions include sugar dissolved in water, salt dissolved in water, and alcohol dissolved in water. In each case, the solid particles (sugar, salt, or alcohol) are evenly distributed in the liquid solvent (water) to form a clear solution.
There are a number of examples of solid in gas solutions, such as smoke, in which carbon and air are in the form of a solution. Automobile exhaust is another example of solid in gas solution. An example of such solution is Iodine vapors in the air.
A supersaturated solution can be obtained when a saturated solution which is in contact with its solid, is slightly heated in order to increase the solubility product, followed by quick cooling.
No. A solid-solid solution is called an alloy.
