Explain the following giving examples
a) Saturated solution
b) Pure Substance
c) Colloid
d) Suspension
Answers
Explanation:
(a) The term saturated solution is used in chemistry to define a solution in which no more solvent can be dissolved. It is understood that saturation of the solution has been achieved when any additional substance that is added results in a solid precipitate or is let off as a gas.
Eg: Saltwater
(b) Pure substance: A material that is composed of only one type of particle.
Eg: Gold, oxygen and water.
(c) Colloid: A homogeneous non-crystalline substance consisting of large molecules or ultramicroscopic particles of one substance dispersed through a second substance.
Eg: Gels, sols and emulsions.
d) Suspension: A suspension is a heterogeneous mixture in which solute-like particles settle out of a solvent-like phase sometime after their introduction. We apply the word suspension when particles are big enough to eventually settle.
Eg: wheat flour and water.

a) Saturated solution :
- A saturated solution is a solution that contains the maximum amount of solute that is capable of being dissolved.
b) Pure substance :
- A pure substance is a sample of matter with both definite and constant composition and distinct chemical properties.
c) Colloid :
- A homogeneous non-crystalline substance consisting of large molecules or ultramicroscopic particles of one substance dispersed through a second substance.
d) Suspension :
- A suspension is a heterogeneous mixture of a fluid that contains solid particles sufficiently large for sedimentation.
