When all of a mixture's atoms, molecules, and particles are evenly mixed it is called a colloid.

What is a mixture with particles that settle on their own?

A mixture with particles that settle on their own is called a suspension. Suspensions contain larger particles that are insoluble in the solvent and will eventually settle to the bottom due to gravity. Examples include sand in water and chalk in water.


What is the term for a mixture with fine insoluble particles in it that eventually settle out to form a sediment?

A Suspension Here the particle size can be viewed by the naked eye. The particles display the tyndal effect where the particles are used as the medium for light rays. The particles also settle down after a short period of time and this mixture can be seperated using a funnel or evaporation(if it is an aqueous solution).


What is a mixture containing small undissolved particles that do not settle out?

A colloid is a mixture containing small undissolved particles that do not settle out. Examples of colloids include milk, fog, and gelatin.


What is a mixture contaning small undissolved particles that do not settle out?

A colloid is a mixture containing small undissolved particles that do not settle out. Examples include milk, gelatin, and fog.


What contains particles that will settle out of the mixture if left sitting out?

A heterogeneous mixture containing particles of different sizes and densities will settle out if left sitting out, due to gravity pulling the heavier particles to the bottom. This process is known as sedimentation. Examples include suspensions of sand in water or muddy water.

Suspension.


What is a heterogeneous mixture containing a liquid in which visible particles settle?

It is called a suspension. This type of mixture is not uniform in composition, and the particles will eventually settle out due to gravity.

Will colloid particles eventually settle out?

They won't because a colloidal mixture is a perfect solution...


What is a mixture from which particles settle out upon standing called?

A suspension has large particles that settle out on standing.


Is an suspension a homogeneous mixture?

No it is not. This is because the different substances mixed can be clearly distinguished in the mixture. The particles are large enough to settle out over time, whereas in a homogeneous mixture, the solution will not settle out over time.


Is a mixture in which the particles are spread out through the liquid but are large enough to settle to the bottom?

This type of mixture is called a suspension. Suspensions contain particles dispersed in a liquid medium, and these particles are large enough to settle out over time due to gravity. Stirring or shaking a suspension can temporarily disperse the particles, but they will eventually settle back down.


What contains particles that will settle out of the mixture of left sitting?

A suspension contains particles that will settle out of the mixture if left sitting out.

A type of mixture with particles that are larger those in solutions but not heavy enough to settle out?

The type of mixture you are referring to is a colloid. Colloids have larger particles than those in solutions but are still small enough to remain dispersed and not settle out. Examples of colloids include fog and mayonnaise.


A mixture where the particles are dispersed but settle out?

They are called colloids.
