Have you ever made
a drink with water
and a powder? How
about lemonade from
a mix?

Title: Mix, Mix, Mix
A solution is a
homogeneous
mixture has the same
properties
throughout the
sample.
It means that the
substances mixed
thoroughly, after stirring,
appeared as one
substance. You can no
longer distinguish one
component from the
other
An example is a mixture
of sugar in water. When
sugar dissolves in water,
the two substances
appear as one. The sugar
particles can no longer
identified.
However, the taste of
the water proves that
the sugar was not lost
after mixing, its chemical
property is reteined and
so the water taste sweet.
Four types of solutions
1. Solid in Liquid
A solid substance is
dissolved in a liquid
substance. Example are
sugar in water, salt in water,
juice powder in water, or
coffee in water.
2. Liquid in Liquid
A liquid substance can also be
dissolved in another liquid and
these two substances can be
mixed thoroughly. Examples of
these are alcohol and water,
wine and soda water,
concentrated fruit juice in
water, or liquid milk and water.
3. Gas in Liquid
Certain liquids contains
gaseous substances. Soft
drinks appear as liquid, but
they actually contain carbon
dioxide gas. This can be
observed when the bottle of
soft drink is shaken or opened,
bubbles appear and gas is
released.
Oxygen is also present in water.
Plants use them during the food-
making process. There is also
oxygen in the blood, and this
makes our cells function well.
4. Gas in Gas
Air is very good example
of gas in a gas solution. It
is a mixture of several
gases-oxygen, nitrogen,
carbon dioxide, and
others.
5. Solid in Solid
-Steel, basically a solution of
carbon atoms in a crystalline
matrix of iron atoms.
-Alloys like bronze and many
other.
-Polymers containing
plasticizers.
