Explain the following with examples .
i) Saturated solution
ii) Colloid
iii) Suspension
Answers
Saturated solution:
The term saturated solution is used in chemistry to define a solution in which no more solute can be dissolved in the solvent (more solute can be dissolved if the solution is heated). Examples of saturated solutions is our daily life are saturated salt solutions, fizzy drinks (saturated with ).
Colloid:
In chemistry, a colloid is a phase separated mixture in which one substance of microscopically dispersed insoluble or soluble particles is suspended throughout another substance. Typically, colloids do not completely settle or take a long time to settle completely into two separated layers. Colloids can't be separated by normal filteration methods. Examples of colloids include milk, blood, etc.
Suspension:
In chemistry, a suspension is a heterogeneous mixture that contains solid particles sufficiently large for sedimentation. The particles may be visible to the naked eye, usually must be larger than one micrometer, and will eventually settle, although the mixture is only classified as a suspension when and while the particles have not settled out. Examples include a mixture of water and flour, muddy water, etc.
