Well, all the particles of the fruit juice are still at the bottom of the juice container, so if you shake it, it will go all over the place and it will not stay at the bottom.

And yes...it took me a long time to find in my science book.

Actually that's not quite correct. The correct answer is particles in suspensions settle out. And it took me along time to find that in my science book

Is a solution a mixture explain example?

A solution is when two liquids are combined in such as way that they cannot be separated. An example of this would be when liquid chocolate syrup is put into a glass of milk and stirred. The two cannot be separated again. When people say mixture, they do not necessarily mean a solution. They can mean a suspension. This means a solid is reduced to tiny particles that cannot be seen. They are floating in the liquid. One example of a suspension is when you put glitter in a glass of water and shake it. The glitter and water are a mixture, but if you allow it to sit, the glitter will fall out.

Is olive oil a colloid suspension or a solution?

Yes. All colloids are suspensions but not all suspensions are colloids. A colloidal suspension consists of particles small enough that they will not settle out of the material in which they are suspended. Oil can be emulsified with a surfactant e.g., detergent to form an emulsion, a type of colloidal suspension. An example of this form of oil/water mixture is mayonnaise. Homogenization of the butterfat (oil) in milk prevents the butterfat from layering out as you would see in un-homogenized (straight from the cow) milk. Compare those two systems (mayonnaise and milk) to Italian dressing. No matter how hard or long you shake the bottle, in a short time the oil rises to the top. For a time, the oil was suspended but the droplet size never approached the size needed to form a colloid. See what happens if you put a drop of dishwashing detergent in the bottle of dressing before you shake it...but, don't put it on your salad.

Can a liquid not dissolve in a liquid?

If they are immiscable, they can not mutually dissolve - think of oil and water. You can shake them up to make an emulsion, but they will then separate unless you have some kind of binding agent to hold the emulsion/suspension.


Are liquid medicines advocated to 'shake well before use' thixotropic or rheopectic?

Neither of those properties. Most likely the medicine is a "suspension" of fine insoluble solids in a liquid medium and should be shaken thoroughly to ensure an even distribution. Calamine Lotion would be a good example.
