It is a colloid because the hand creams are formulated as an oil-in-water emulsion, in which the dispersion medium is water based and the dispersed phase is oil based. This is why creams feel creamy to the touch.

How can colloid's be distinguished from suspension?

Particles cannot be filtered from colloids. A colloid is distinguished from a solution and a suspension by the particles because they usually have an electric charge, and they repel each other, so they do not collect into larger particles that would settle out like those in solutions, and suspensions.


What is a mixture in which some of the particles will settle out?

Mixtures in which some of the particles settle out are called suspensions. An example of a mixture is dirt mixed with a large amount of water. On the other hand, mixtures in which the particles do not settle out are called colloids.

Is there a medication used to treat hand fungi caused by sweat?

TECHNICALLY, SWEAT DOES NOT GIVE YOU THE FUNGAS. Sweat makes the area of your skin more hospitable to fungi by keeping it damp and warm, where a fungas likes to live. To get rid of the fungas, there are prescription anti-fungal creams that you can get from your doctor. Anti-fungals also come in pill form, injection, powder and liquid suspensions. Ask your healthcare professional for proper treatment.....<<<ADR>>>
