==Gases== Several substances that exist as gases at [[standard conditions of temperature and pressure]] are commonly used as concentrated [[aqueous solution]]s. To clarify that it is the gaseous form that is being referred to, the term ''anhydrous'' is prefixed to the name of the substance: *Gaseous [[ammonia]] is generally referred to as ''anhydrous'' ammonia, to distinguish it from its solution in water, household [[ammonia solution]], also known as ammonium hydroxide. *Gaseous [[hydrogen chloride]] is generally referred to as ''anhydrous'', to distinguish it from its solution in water, [[hydrochloric acid]]. Reactions which produce water can be kept dry using a [[Dean–Stark apparatus]].
