Define aqueous and non aqueous solutions AND give atleast 10 examples for each catagory and give their chemical formulae

There is actually no formula for a solution. There are separate formulas for the solvent and the solute.
Aqueous solutions include sea water, saliva, sweat, urine, salad dressing, milk, fruit juice, drain cleaner, beer, maple syrup, bleach,
A common example of a non-aqueous solution is the gasoline we are now putting into our cars which contains up to 10% ethanol.

The previous poster is correct. The question is strange as solutions are not expressed with chemical formulae (I didn't think) I suppose for an aqueous solution you could do something like:
H20 + Na+ + Cl-
to show how salt forms ions in water but the non-aqueous solutions will require some research. (Things like fat-soluble vitamins and hormones, but ten? Glad I'm not you!) :-)

An aqueous solution is a solution of a salt and water. The water that is present is always present in a fixed ratio. If the water is naturally occuring in the salt, then it is known as "Water of crystallization"
eg.:
CuSO4.5H2O
( The ".5H2O" is put to define how many molecules are attached to the salt. It is read as: Copper sulphate with 5 water of crystalization)
A non-aqueous solution is a salt from which its water of crystallization has been removed by evaporation or any other process.
eg.:
CuSO4
MgSO4
NaCl
CaCO3
Na2CO3
FeSO4
Na2SO4
CaSO4

An aqueous solution is when something is dissolved in water. All other solutions are non aqueous

Ratty's right - aqueous solutions result when a substance dissolves in water to form a solution.
You might want to rephrase this question, but here are some answers anyway:
AQUEOUS: ('aq' denotes the fact that they're aqueous)
NaOH (aq)
HCl (aq)
NaCl (aq)
KOH (aq)
CuSO4 (aq)
MgSO4 (aq)
Cu(NO3)2 (aq)
NaNO3 (aq)
Ca(NO3)2 (aq)
CoCl2 (aq)

a solution having water as the solvent is known as an aqueous solution.if water is not the solvent,the solution is thn known as non-aqueous solution,

For non-aquaous solutions think metal alloys like steel (iron + carbon)
