Unit 6 Flashcards
homogeneous
uniform mixture
heterogeneous
non-uniform mixture
whats the two types of HOMOgeneous mixtures
solutions and collodis
what is a usual characteristic of a solution
solutions are usually transparent
whats a observable(visual) characteristic of colloids
cloudy/milky or gel-like
what happens when something dissolves
In a solution, the solute breaks up into individual molecules or ions
The solute particles are all less than 2 nm in diameter.
what happens to a solution when the particles, what does the solution look like
Because the solute particles are so small, they do not scatter light. Solutions are transparent.
colloid
A colloid is a homogeneous mixture with particles that are between 2 nm – 1000 nm in diameter. Because the particle size is comparable to the wavelength of light, colloids scatter light
whats to solvent dispersed phase of butter
gel
what state is shaving cream considered
foam
gas as dispersed phase, liquid as solvent phase
what phase is paint
sol
solid in dispersed and solvent phase
perfume is an example of what phase
liquid aresol
what type of liquid is transparent
SOLUTIONS ARE TRANSPARENT
whats a suspension?
A suspension is a heterogeneous mixture with particles that are larger than 1000 nm in diameter. Suspensions have been thoroughly mixed are temporarily uniform, but because the particle size is so large, it will eventually settle into two phases.
whats the difference between heterogeneous mixture, colloid and solution
size
solubility
The solubility of a substance is the maximum amount of it that can dissolve in a given amount of solvent.
For example, the solubility of sodium chloride at 25 °C is 359 g/L. That means you could dissolve up to 359 g of NaCl in 1.0 L water at room temperature.
