A gas-liquid equilibrium system is a system where a gas is in equilibrium with a liquid, and the concentration of the gas in the liquid is determined by Henry's Law. The following options are not examples of a gas-liquid equilibrium system:

a) The combustion of gasoline in a car engine: This is a chemical reaction, not a gas-liquid equilibrium system.

b) The reaction of baking soda and vinegar: This is also a chemical reaction, not a gas-liquid equilibrium system.

d) The reaction of sodium and chlorine to form sodium chloride: This is a chemical reaction, not a gas-liquid equilibrium system.

However, the solubility of oxygen in water is an example of a gas-liquid equilibrium system, where the partial pressure of oxygen in the air is in equilibrium with the concentration of oxygen in the water, as determined by Henry's Law.
