Q

colloids, filtered?

A

pass through filter paper, *can’t be separated by filtration

20
Q

colloids, separate?

A

stay suspended by molecular motion of dispersing medium

21
Q

colloids, define

A

particles can’t be seen by the naked eye

22
Q

colloids, light?

A

show the Tyndall effect, scatter light

23
Q

colloids, homo or hetero?

A

mostly homogeneous (to naked eye), boardering heterogeneous

24
Q

colloids, examples

A

jello, fog, smoke

25
Q

***mixtures are categorized by ____

A

particle size

26
Q

Tyndall effect

A

light is scattered by colloid sized particles, making beams of light visible (i.e. high beams in fog)

27
Q

suspensions, size

A

> 1000 nm

28
Q

suspensions, filtered?

A

easily filtered— solute and separate solvent

29
Q

suspensions, separate?

A

large particles settle out and mixture separates upon standing

30
Q

suspensions, define

A

large molecules or clusters of matter

31
Q

suspensions, light?

A

varies

32
Q

suspensions, homo or hetero?

A

heterogeneous

33

compounds that ionize/ dissociate nearly 100% in solution,
very good conductor

43
Q

weak electrolytes:

A

small amt. of solute dissolves into ions in solution,

poor conductors

44

molecules/ covalent compounds form ions in solution,

create ions when there were none

45
Q

covalent bonds- ___ to ___ compounds

A

nonmetal- nonmetal compounds

46

made by melting 2 or more elements (at least 1 is a metal), crystallizes when cooled

47
Q

electrolyte:

A

compound that conducts electricity and forms ions
