Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) Solid in gas

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Iodine, when present in air, typically exists as iodine vapor \(\left(\mathrm{I}_2\right)\) or as a liquid mist (sublimated iodine), where small droplets of liquid iodine are dispersed in the air. This means that iodine is in a liquid phase but is dispersed in the gas phase (air).
