Solution

The correct option is C Ammonia
The alkali metals, alkaline earth metals and transition metals like copper dissolve in liquid ammonia producing blue solutions. It is proven that this blue colour is due to solvated electron. These solutions can reduce other chemical species. As the concentration of dissolved metal increases the solution becomes deeper blue in colour.
