What is it called when you see tiny particles floating in a liquid?

Mixtures that have floating particles in them are called suspensions.


Why are homogeneous mixtures more difficult to separate then heterogeneous?

Homogeneous mixtures are more difficult to separate than heterogeneous mixtures because the particles are all mixed together, whereas heterogeneous mixtures have particles big enough to see.


What type of mixtures particles are spread evenly throughout?

Homogeneous mixtures, or solutions.


What Mixtures are by comparing the sizes of particles in them?

heterogeneous


How are the particles different in compounds and mixtures?

If you think to atoms they are identical.


Are there space between molecules in a mixture?

Yes there are spaces between molecules of mixtures. The only difference is that we can separately see particles in heterogeneous mixtures but cannot in the case of homogeneous mixtures as particles dissolve as a visible boundary is not formed. In a mixture of iron fillings and sulphur we separately see the particles thought the iron enters the inter molecular space between the particles of sulphur.


Mixtures whose particles are smaller than those in heterogeneous mixtures and larger than those in solutions are called what?

elements


Which mixtures is not a colloid?

These are mixture with particles larger than 1 micrometre.


Which mixture has the smallest particles compound colloid suspension or solution?

A solution has the smallest particles, of the mixtures that you list.


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.
