They are called "colloids". These have large particles that are suspended in a solution.

What is a homogeneous mixture whose particles are too small to reflect or scatter light?
A solution is a homogeneous mixture whose particles are too small to reflect or scatter light. A colloid is a heterogeneous mixture containing particles that are small enough to stay suspended but large enough to scatter light.
Does a solution scatter light?
no
How did the Ancient Egyptians sow seeds for new crops?
They would scatter them by hand over the fields after they had been plowed by oxen.
Who used polonium and gold foil in his famous experiment?
Rutherford supervised the experiment in his famous beta particle scatter experiment with gold foil, so he is given credit.
What happens when light is shone on a thin piece of glass?
Well, quite a lot takes place when light is shone on a piece of glass. This has a lot to do with the surface of the glass (how clean it might be), and also with the structure of the glass itself. The light will tend to scatter off the glass -if the glass itself is reflective, or if there are particles on the surface which are reflective. It will also diffract through the glass, causing the light to bend. This is similar to the way that light diffracts through water, but to a MUCH smaller degree if the glass is uniform, thin, and smooth. The glass may also warm slightly, based on the intensity and angle of the light incident on the glass. There are also several other effects, but I hope that this has covered what you wanted to know.

A homogeneous mixture whose particles are too small to reflect or scatter light?
a solution!
Which type of mixture has particles large enough to scatter light?
This is a colloidal mixture.
What mixture would not scatter light?
A homogeneous mixture, homo- means of the same. A homogeneous mixture is a mixture that cannot be separated in any way.
What are substances composed of several elements or compounds that are physically mixed but not chemically united called?
The only term that covers every instance in the question is MIXTURES. There are also some special cases. If only metals are included and the mixture is homogeneous on the level of volumes than include only a few atoms, the mixture may be called an alloy. If the mixture is homogeneous on the level of volumes than include only a few molecules or atoms, the mixture is a solution. If the mixture is a liquid or gas and appears to have stable composition but contains particles large enough to scatter light, the mixture is a suspension or colloid.
A mixture of particles that are large enough to scatter or block light?
I believe that would be a suspension.
What is a heterogeneous mixture whose particles never settle and are large enough to scatter light?
A colloid
How heterogeneous mixture with larger particles that never settle and scatter light are called?
it's the answer
Whats is a mixture containing particles that are too small to be seen easily but are large enough to scatter a light?
hi and always be free to ask today i shall tell u the meaning of this term on the top of my smart head this question is saturated. plz subscribe and share ur thoughts be free. thankx
Is shampoo homogeneous or heterogeneous?
A spray is likely a homogeneous mixture in the form of a liquid. However, if the particles were small enough to still be sprayed in a heterogeneous colloid, a spray could be in this form.
Is rubbing alcohol a compound heterogeneous mixture or homogeneous mixture?
Answer 100% isopropyl alcohol is a pure substance and not a mixture. A mixture consists of more than one type of chemical compound mixed with another either uniformly or not uniformly. Over the counter isopropyl alcohol is usually 70% or 90% Isopropyl with this rest made up of water. Since the alcohol and water mix together uniformly and the particles are too small to scatter light, isopropyl alcohol and water is classified as a homogeneous mixture. More specifically you would call this homogeneous mixture of alcohol and water a solution. Other homogeneous mixtures include salt water, pepsi, apple juice and a martini (without the olive).
What can the particles in a solution and a colloid do?
A Colloid is a type of mechanical mixture in which extremely small particles of on or more substances are evenly and stably distributed in one or more others. A Suspension is a mechanical mixture consisting of a liquid or gas with small particles that are distributed through it, but that separate out if the suspension is left undisturbed
