Question #531b0

Answer 1

Well...technically I suppose you could call air a gaseous solution, but personally I wouldn't.....

Explanation:

Whilst some regard air as a "gaseous solution", it would more generally be regarded simply as a "mixture".

The reason is that whilst air is a homogeneous mixture of various gasses, there is virtually no interaction between the atoms/molecules of the various gasses, so there isn't really any value in regarding it as a solution in terms of describing any part of its chemistry. So it is more useful, I believe, to regard air as simply a homogeneous mixture.

Suspension and colloid are both terms that relate to heterogeneous mixtures, (the dispersed phase should be imiscible with the continuous) so doesn't apply to air.
