These particles may be either atoms or molecules, Thus, — “9 \/Acoure substance may also be defined as a | material which contains o1 i | gloms or molecules.

Metals have a shining surface when freshly prepared. This property of shining surface of metals i called metallic lustre. For example, silver has a shining white surface, gold ix@ yellow while copper is reddish brown, Silver and gold are used for making jewellery because they-have-a tight shining surface which isnot easily tarnished by moisture and atmospheric gases. Due to their shining surface, metals are good reflectors. Silver metal is an-excellent reflector of light and hence is used for sistance to the flow of electric current and hence silvering of mirrors Metals are generally hard. Metals are generally quite hard. But all metals are not equally"ha Their hardness varies from one metal tothe other. For example, iron, aluminium, copper, etc. are very hard and hence cannot be cut with a knife. However, metals ike sodium and potassium are quite soft and henoe can be easily cut with a knife 46. Metals have high tensile strength. Metals have a high ten s . a th. Metals have a high tensile strength. This means that metals ‘caf hold large weights without breaking.

Stir well to obtain a clear transparent solution, Repeat th is expre above experiment by taking 100 mL. of water in each beaker. You will observe that the four beakers have different shades of blue colour. Thus, we conclude that in a solution, the relative amounts of the solute anid the solvent can be varied.

Depending ee nding upon the type of iat i in liquid, these methods are divided into the following two et whether solid in liquid or liguil ies : ae a or Mass by mass percentage or mass percentage of a solution = Mass of solute Mass of solution Mass of solute ‘Wass of solute + Mass of solvent) ed a8 follows 100. (ii) Mass by volume percentage. I is de The mass of the solute in grams dissotved in 100 millilitres or 100 mL of the solution. | For example, a 10 percent mass by volume solution of common salt in water means that {'grams of common salt are present in 100 mL of the solution. In other words, a 10 percent mass by volume solution of common salt is prepared by first completely dissolving 10 grams of common salt in a small amount of waier and then finally making the volume to 100 mL.. The mass by volume percentage of a solution can also be caleulated by using the following formula. : Mass of solute Mast by volume percentage of a solution = Tass of Se 100 Concentration of very dilute solutions Ifa very small amount of a solute is dissolved in a a of the solvent, the values of mass by mass and mass by volume percentages will be very low.

A suspension isa heterogencous mixture in which the solute particles do not dissolve but remain suspended throughout the bulk of the medium. The particles of a suspension are big enough (> 100 nm) to be seen by the naked eye. For example, lime water used for white wash is a suspension of calcium hydroxide in water. (Colloids are heterogeneous mixtures in which the size of the particles lies in between those: 6f true solutions (less than 10-° m usually in the order of 10-* cm) and suspensions (© 10% em). Their particles are too small to be seen with the naked eye but are big enought to scatter light.
