How can you tell the difference between suspension colloid or solution?
Use the Tyndall Effect shine a light through it. If the light is scattered then it is colloidal. Both colloids and suspensions are heterogeneous. A solution will not show the beam through it's substance but the colloid will. The particles in the suspension will eventually settle at the bottom, showing that it is NOT a solution.

How can you use flashlights to determine a type of mixture?
They can help identify colloids, a type of mixture in which one substance is dispersed evenly throughout another in the form of small particles, like milk, smoke, fog, etc. When you shine a bright light through a colloid, the light will scatter (like when you shine a flashlight through smoke), a phenomenon known as the Tyndall effect.
Is food coloring a pure substance?
No, it is not. It completely dissolves. If you want to check if a mixture is a colloid shine a beam of light through it. (A flashlight should work, although a laser pointer is best. If you're having trouble getting a thinnish beam with your flashlight take a piece of cardboard or some other opaque material and cut a hole in it. Then shine the flashlight through that.) If you can see the beam of light the mixture is a colloid. Pure water, for example, is not a colloid. I have found that flour and water makes a very nice colloid. Smoke, fog/mist, clouds and honey are some naturally occurring colloids.
