4 Questions
What is the main difference between mechanical mixtures and solutions?
Mechanical mixtures are heterogeneous and not mixed evenly throughout, while solutions are homogeneous and mix evenly throughout.
What are alloys and how do they differ from mechanical mixtures?
Alloys are homogeneous mixtures where one of the main substances is metal. They differ from mechanical mixtures in being homogenous and mix evenly throughout.
How can mechanical mixtures be divided, and what are the characteristics of each division?
Mechanical mixtures can be divided into suspensions and colloids. Suspensions are fluids mixed with solids that can't be dissolved and will precipitate, while colloids have microscopic particles that are mixed evenly throughout, can move freely, and don't precipitate.
What are the main components of bronze and brass, and how do they differ?
Bronze is made of copper, tin, and aluminum, while brass is made of copper and zinc.
