Liquid Solutions
Gas Liquid Liquid Oxygen dissolved in water,
CO2 dissolved in water
Liquid Liquid Ethanol dissolved in water
Solid Liquid Sucrose or salt in water.
Solid Solution
Gas Solid Solution of hydrogen in palladium
(phenomenon of adsorption of gases
over metals)
Liquid Solid Mercury with sodium (amalgams)
Solid Solid Copper dissolved in gold (alloys).
Types of Solutions
On the basis of number of components and concentration,
solutions are of following types :
(i) Binary (ii) Ternary (iii) Tetranary
Binary : In this, we have one solvent and one solute.
Ternary : In this, there is one solvent and two solutes, means total
three components. Eg. In water, common salt and sugar.
Tetranary : In this, there is one solvent and three solutes means
total four components.
On the basis of concentration
(a) Unsaturated (b) Saturated (c) Supersaturated
Unsaturated : In this type of solution, more amount of solute may
be dissolved at constant temperature.
Saturated : In this type of solution, after certain amount of
solute, no further amount of solute can be dissolved otherwise
homogeneity is disturbed at constant temperature.
Supersaturated : In case of supersaturated solution, when solute is
dissolved, Homogeneity is disturbed and excess amount of solute
is there. It is also known as a meta stable solution.

w weight
*
w weight
In this, amount of solute is in terms of weight with respect to
the weight of solution assumed to be 100 gm.
w
Example : 10%
w
10 gm of solute in 100 gm of solution means 90 gm of solvent
w weight
*
v volume
In this, amount of solute is in terms of weight with respect to
the volume of solution assumed to be 100 mL.
w
Example : 20%
v
means, 20 gm of solute in 100 mL of the solution.

v volume
*
v volume
In this case, amount of solute is in terms of volume with respect
to the solution.
v
Example : 10%
v
means, 10 litre of solute in 100 L of solution or 10 mL of solute
in 100 mL of solution.
