Solution

Alkaline refers to a basic solution.
When hydrochloric acid reacts with water it will not produce an alkaline solution.
However, when ammonia, which is basic in nature, forms ammonium hydroxide, which is an alkaline solution.
The reaction is given as :
$N H_{3} (a q) + H_{2} O (l) \to N H_{4} O H (l) A m m o n i a W a t e r A m m o n i u m H y d r o x i d e$
Thus, the gas which dissolves in water to from an alkaline solution is $N H_{3}$ .
