A mixture of Liquid and Gas where a liquid is dispersed phase and gas is dispersing medium is known as? Correct Answer Aerosol

Dispersed Phase and Dispersing Medium:

The components of a colloidal solution are the dispersed phase and the dispersion medium.

The solute-like component or the dispersed particles in a colloid form the dispersed phase, and the component in which the dispersed phase is suspended is known as the dispersing medium.
