Correct Answer
C. Gas

Explanation
When we make lemonade, we often see bubbles forming in the drink. These bubbles are actually carbon dioxide gas that is released from the carbonation process. Carbon dioxide gas is dissolved in the liquid when the lemonade is carbonated, and when we open the bottle or pour the lemonade, the gas is released and forms bubbles. Therefore, the correct answer is gas.
