Answers
An emulsion is a mixture of two or more liquids that are normally immiscible (unmixable or unblendable). Emulsions are part of a more general class of two-phase systems of matter called colloids.
Types of Emulsion are:
1.oil-in-water.
2.water-in-oil.
An emulsion is a type of colloid formed by combining two liquids that normally don't mix. In an emulsion, one liquid contains a dispersion of the other liquid. Common examples of emulsions include egg yolk, butter, and mayonnaise. The process of mixing liquids to form an emulsion is called emulsification.
Emulsion Types. There are two basic types of emulsions: oil-in-water (O/W) and water-in-oil (W/O). These emulsions are exactly what they sound like, as pictured below. In every emulsion there is a continuous phase that suspends the droplets of the other element which is called the dispersed phase.
