Question

Which of the following is an aqueous solution?
A. Tincture of iodine
B. Solution of $S$ in $C{S_2}$
C. Sugar in water
D. None of the above

Answer 1

Hint: Solution obtained by dissolving a solute in any solvent other than liquid is called non aqueous solution.And solution obtained by dissolving a solute in any solvent which is liquid in state is called aqueous solution.

Step by step answer: Aqueous Solution: It is a solution in which the solute is added to a solvent which is water or liquid. For example the solution of $NaCl$ is aqueous in nature. So according to this information solution of sugar in water is aqueous solution so the correct option will be 3rd one.
Non Aqueous Solution: It is a solution in which the solute is added to any kind of solvent except water or something in liquid state. For example brass solution that is formed by dissolving copper in zinc.

Hence the correct option is C.

Note: There are few solutions in which solid and liquid is added but we still get solid for example we get jelly, cheese or butter etc. So it is not important that if we will add water in solution then we will get aqueous solution.
