What is a Homogeneous mixture with particles so tiny they can't be seen even with a microscope?
A homogeneous mixture with particles so tiny they cannot be seen even with a microscope is called a solution. In a solution, the particles are evenly distributed and do not settle out over time. Examples of solutions include saltwater and sugar dissolved in water.
Can beta pass through a brick wall?
No, beta particles cannot pass through a brick wall. Beta particles are stopped by solid materials such as brick walls.
What happens to a sound wave if there are no particles to vibrate?
Without particles to vibrate, sound waves cannot propagate since they rely on the transfer of energy through particles. In a vacuum or empty space, there are no particles for sound waves to travel through, so they cannot be transmitted.
What Sound cannot travel through a?
Sound cannot travel through a vacuum because it requires a medium, such as air or water, to transmit vibrations. In a vacuum, there are no particles for the sound waves to travel through, so the sound cannot propagate.
Can sound travel were there is no particles?
No, sound waves require a medium (such as air, water, or solids) to travel through. In a vacuum where there are no particles, sound cannot travel because there is no medium for the vibrations to propagate through.
Are the particles in a suspension larger than the particles of a solution but are yet to small to be easily seen?
Particles in a suspension are larger than the particles of a solution, but they are not always so small that they cannot be easily seen with the eye.
Why can you filter a suspension but not a solution?
You can filter a suspension because the particles are physically larger and can be trapped by the filter, whereas a solution has particles dissolved at the molecular level and passing through the filter. In a solution, the particles are homogeneously distributed in the solvent and cannot be separated by physical means like filtration.
How is the microscope useful?
A microscope allows the human eye to examine tiny particles that otherwise cannot be seen.
How can colloid's be distinguished from suspension?
Particles cannot be filtered from colloids. A colloid is distinguished from a solution and a suspension by the particles because they usually have an electric charge, and they repel each other, so they do not collect into larger particles that would settle out like those in solutions, and suspensions.
What factor distinguishes a suspension from a colloid?
The size of the particles is the main factor that distinguishes a suspension from a colloid. In a suspension, the particles are larger and can be seen with the naked eye, while in a colloid, the particles are smaller and do not settle out over time.
What are liquid drops or solid particles spread through gas?
A gas cannot easily pass through a liquid or a solid however it can be entrapped in it . If a gas bubble is formed in a liquid it moves upward and escapes out of the liquid. Gas cannot pass through a solid barrier.
What is a homogeneous mixture in which particles are so small that they cannot be seen without a microscope?
Solution
When solid is dissolved in a liquid?
When a solid is dissolved in a liquid, the liquid is said to be the solvent and the solid is to be the solute. The liquid that you get after dissolving the solid into the liquid is called the solution. When a solute dissolves, the solvent particles attract the particles of the solute away which breaks the cluster of particles apart. After dissolving enough amount that the solvent cannot dissolve more, the solution is said to be saturated. It is the state when the solution cannot dissolve anymore solute. The opposite of solution is suspension. A suspension is when the solute cannot be dissolved (that is, it is insoluble) into the solvent and stays suspended in the solvent. A suspension is translucent and the suspended particles can be easily seen. While, in a solution, the particles are soluble and complete dissolve into the solvent. A solution is transparent and the particles are too small to be seen through naked eyes.
What can you see with a microscope?
The microscope is an optical instrument used to view objects or particles that cannot be seen through our naked eyes. It is also used by medical technologists to detect certain bacteria, parasites, or other foreign elements in the specimen of an individual.
What is the function of a stain in microscope work?
As the cells are transparent, the components cannot be seen clearly through a microscope. We stain the cell so that we can see the components of the cell clearly through a microscope.
What has bigger particles suspensions or solutions?
Suspensions have bigger particles compared to solutions. In suspensions, the particles are larger and can be seen with the naked eye, while in solutions, the particles are at the molecular or ionic level and cannot be seen.
Can you smell mircrooganisms?
You can see microorganisms through a microscope, but you cannot smell or taste them.
