Question

Match the following.

Relate physical states used in chemical reaction to their symbols.

$\begin{array}{cc}\text{Physical State}& \text{Symbol}\\ \text{1.Gas}& \text{(A) (s)}\\ \text{2.Solid}& \text{(B) (g)}\\ \text{3.Liquid}& \text{(C) (aq)}\\ \text{4.Dissolved in water (solution with water)}& \text{(D) (l)}\end{array}$

• A. 1 - B, 2 - A, 3 - D, 4 - C
• B. 1 - A, 2 - B, 3 - C, 4 - D
• C. 1 - B, 2 - D, 3 - A, 4 - C
• D. 1 - C, 2 - D, 3 - A, 4 - B

Answer 1

The correct option is A

1 - B, 2 - A, 3 - D, 4 - C

$\begin{array}{cc}\text{Physical State}& \text{Symbol}\\ \text{1.Gas}& \text{(B) (g)}\\ \text{2.Solid}& \text{(A) (s)}\\ \text{3.Liquid}& \text{(D) (l)}\\ \text{4.Dissolved in water (solution with water)}& \text{(C) (aq)}\end{array}$

When something is dissolved in water, the solution is called an aqueous solution.
