compounds
Compounds and solutions are pure substances
how are solutions suspensions and colloids alike
A solution is a homogeneous mixture.
Colloids are neither homogeneous nor heterogeneous. They are kind of intermediate and are a separate group themselves.
Suspension is a heterogeneous mixture in which insoluble solid particles are dispersed in a liquid. Colloids are homogeneous mixtures where particles are intermediate in size between those in a solution and a suspension, and do not settle out. Solutions are homogeneous mixtures where substances are completely dissolved in a solvent.
Colloids are heterogeneous mixtures because they contain dispersed particles that are not dissolved and are larger than those found in true solutions, giving them the appearance of being mixed yet not fully dissolved.
Brass is a solid solution. If you melted it, it would still be homogeneous, it wouldn't separate out...ever.
A homogenous mixture of two or more substances that are not solutions is a colloid. Colloids have particles that are larger than the particles in a solution, but still do not settle out over time. Examples of colloids include milk and fog.
No, not all homogeneous mixtures are solutions. While all solutions are homogeneous mixtures, there are other homogeneous mixtures, such as colloids and suspensions, that do not meet the criteria of a solution (solute completely dissolved in a solvent).
Mixtures are substances that are made by physical combination of one or more substances and none of the constituent elements are changed. The basic classification of mixtures is into homogeneous and heterogeneous substances. They can also be further divided under these two categories in to solutions, dispersions or colloids. Air is a homogeneous mixture of the gaseous substances nitrogen, oxygen, and smaller amounts of other substances. Salt, sugar, and many other substances dissolve in water to form homogeneous mixtures. A homogeneous mixture in which there is both a solute and solvent present is also a solution. Heterogeneous mixtures include fine sand or silt in water.
A homogeneous mixture is a type of mixture where the substances are evenly distributed and do not settle over time. This results in a uniform appearance throughout the mixture. Examples include saltwater and air.
The two types of homogeneous mixtures are solutions and colloids. Solutions are homogeneous mixtures where one substance is dissolved in another, while colloids are homogeneous mixtures with particles that are dispersed throughout a medium but not heavy enough to settle out.
