is a mixture that does not have a uniform composition and in which the individual substances remain distinct

A

Heterogenous mixture

25
Q

Has a uniform composition, also called as solution

A

Homogenous mixture

26
Q

are mixtures containing particles that settle out if left undisturbed.

A

Suspension

27
Q

are heterogeneous mixtures of intermediate sized particles (between 1nm and 1000 nm) and do not settle out.

A

Colloids

28
Q

is when dispersed colloid particles scatter light.

A

Tyndal effect

29
Q

are homogeneous mixtures that contain two or more substances called the solute and solvent.

A

Solution

30
Q

• A substance that dissolves in a solvent is?

A

Soluble

31
Q

• Two liquids that are soluble in each other in any proportion are

A

Miscible

32
Q

• A substance that does not dissolve in a solvent is

A

Insoluble

33
Q

• Two liquids that can be mixed but separate shortly after are

A

Immiscible

34
Q

uses differences in the boiling points of substances to separate a homogeneous

A

Distillation

35
Q

solid substances are separated from liquids and solutions.

A

Filtratiom

36
Q

technique separates substances on the basis of differences in solubility in a solvent

A

Chromatography

37
Q

is a traditional way of separating the palay seeds from the hay by utilizing the wind or blowing air.

A

Winnowing

38
Q

is a process of separating components of mixture of metallic and nonmetallic substance by using a magnet.

A

Magnetism

39
Q

is a physical water treatment using gravity to separate the suspended solids from the liquid portion.

A

Sedimentation

40
Q

is a method of separating components of mixtures by removing a layer of liquid, generally one from the settled solid particles. The purpose is to produce a clean decant (liquid portion), or to remove undesired liquid from the precipitate (or other layers).

A

Decantation

41
Q

one of the easiest way to make a turbid solution clean is by this process. It describes the chemical process of contact and adhesion where the dispersed particles form larger cluster allowing the easy separation from water.

A

Flocculation

42
Q

using a coagulating agent to remove the impurities of an unclean or unclear solution. It allows the removal of suspended and colloidal particles which is the first stage in solid-liquid separation.

A

Coagulation

43
Q

0used to separate soluble solids from liquids utilizing heat, i.e. in salt solution salt, can be separated from water by evaporation.

A

Evaporation
