What are the general classes of colloids?

The general classes of colloids are sols (solid particles dispersed in a liquid), gels (cross-linked networks of solid particles dispersed in a liquid), and emulsions (liquid droplets dispersed in another liquid).


Which technique uses a porous barrier to separate a solid from a liquid?

Filtration is a technique that uses a porous barrier, typically a filter paper or sieve, to separate a solid from a liquid. The liquid passes through the barrier while the solid particles are retained on the filter.


What are different types of colloids?

Some common types of colloids include sols (solid particles dispersed in a liquid), aerosols (liquid or solid particles dispersed in a gas), and emulsions (liquid droplets dispersed in another liquid). Other types include gels (continuous solid network dispersed in a liquid) and foams (gas bubbles dispersed in a liquid).


What are 3 ways to separate solid solutes from liquid solvents?

Filtration: using a filter paper or porous material to separate solid particles from a liquid by passing the mixture through. Evaporation: allowing the liquid to evaporate, leaving behind the solid solute. Centrifugation: spinning the mixture at high speeds to separate the solid particles from the liquid based on their different densities.


Are the particles in a solid moving or still?

Technically, all particles in a Solid, Liquid, or Gas are moving. But a gas moves the fastest, liquid fast, but not as fast as gas, and solid moves the slowest.

How are particles of a liquid different from the particles of a solid?

The particles of a solid are close together and the particles of a liquid are slightly farther apart.


How is a liquid different form a solid?

In a liquid, the particles are free to move around, while in a solid the particles are tightly packed and will not move.


What is a suspention?

A suspention is a solution where the particles of the solvent(liquid) are a different size to the particles of the solute(Solid).


How is a solid different from a liquid or gas?

the distance between the particles and the average kinetic movement of the particles.


Do particles in a solid move faster than particles in liquid?

No, particles in a solid only vibrate, whereas particles in a liquid are free to move within the liquid.


How is the movement of a molecule of particles different when its a solid and gas and a liquid?

The movement of a molecule's particles in a solid move much less and are more structured than a liquid, and a liquid's particles move less than a gas.The movement of a molecule's particles of solid move much less and are more rigid than liquid, and liquid more so than a gas.

How are the particles in a liquid different from the particles in a solid?

a gas have no definite shape so the particles can move around freely but in a liquid ,which has a definite shape, particles move around but are restricted


Why liquid particles did not join to the solid particle?

Liquid particles did not join to the solid particle because the forces holding the liquid particles together were greater than the forces attracting them to the solid particle. This is due to a combination of factors including surface tension, intermolecular forces, and the relative energy levels of the particles involved.


What is a science kind of suspension?

In science, a suspension is a heterogeneous mixture in which solid particles remain distributed throughout a liquid without settling to the bottom or floating to the top. This is different from a solution because the solid particles remain distinct from the liquid part of the mixture where in a solution, the solid particles are indistinct from the liquid (solutions are homogeneous).


Are the particles in a liquid are usually closer together than the particles in a solids?

No, the particles in a solid are usually closer together than the particles in a liquid. In a solid, the particles are tightly packed and have a fixed position, while in a liquid, the particles are more loosely packed and can move around.
