Study Notes
- Study notes for Chemistry: Types of mixtures from April 6 2025 are provided
Types of Mixtures
- Mixtures can be classified as Homogeneous or Heterogeneous
Homogeneous Mixtures
- Exhibit a uniform composition
- Components are completely mixed
- No distinct substances are visible
- Sugar dissolved in water is an example
- A homogeneous mixture is called a solution
Solution Components
- Solute: Present in smaller quantity, like salt
- Solvent: Present in the largest quantity, commonly water
Heterogeneous Mixtures
- Exhibit a non-uniform composition
- Particles are visible
- Distinct layer substances are present
- Salad or coffee are examples
Colloids
- Particles are smaller than suspensions and do not settle down
- Milk is an example
Suspensions
- Particles are large and will settle down
- Sand in water is an example with the water as the dispersion medium which is the substance in larger quantity
Liquids
- If two liquids are mixed, they can be miscible or immiscible
- Miscible: Form one layer, homogeneous, like vinegar in water (dissolved and not visible)
- Immiscible: Form two layers, heterogeneous, like oil in water
