The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Question:** The question asks about the classification of hair cream. We need to identify which category it belongs to among the given options: gel, emulsion, solid-sol, or sol. 2. **Analyzing the Options:** - **Gel:** A gel is a semi-solid state where a liquid is dispersed in a solid. - **Emulsion:** An emulsion is a mixture of two immiscible liquids, where one liquid is dispersed in another. - **Solid-sol:** This is a colloidal system where solid particles are dispersed in a liquid. - **Sol:** A sol is a colloidal solution where solid particles are dispersed in a liquid. 3. **Defining Hair Cream:** Hair cream is typically a cosmetic product that is used to style and manage hair. It usually has a creamy texture and is composed of various ingredients, including oils and water. 4. **Identifying the Nature of Hair Cream:** Since hair cream has a creamy texture and is made up of both oil and water, it fits the definition of an emulsion. The oil and water components are immiscible, meaning they do not mix well, which is characteristic of emulsions. 5. **Conclusion:** Based on the analysis, hair cream is classified as an emulsion. Therefore, the correct answer is **Option 2: Emulsion**. ---
