Raven is vigorously stirring a mixture of sand
and water. She says, "As long as I keep
stirring, the sand stays dissolved in the water."
Do you agree with Raven? Explain why or
why not.
Answers
Answer:
Yes
Explanation
The sand particles will move with the movement of water. Once it stops the sand particles will become a suspension and sink down to the bottom
Yes, the given statement by Raven is correct. As long as the mixture of sand and water is kept stirring , the sand stays dissolved in the water and this mixture of solution is called suspension mixture.
1. Solution - A solution is a homogeneous mixture where one substance is dissolved in another substance. The solute dissolves in the solvent. The solvent is a liquid or gas, and the solute can be a solid, liquid or gas.
2. Suspension mixture - In this mixture, the suspended particles are visible under a microscope and will settle over time if left undisturbed.
3. Colloidal mixture - In this mixture, the suspended particles are smaller and do not settle down when left undisturbed.
