CB/IX/2122 Is matter around us pure 2 of 21 Warm Up Watch this video : [https://www.youtube.com/watch? v=Vt7lN4QPU0k] to explore what is in a mixture.
On your piece of paper, list stuff that you use daily that is made up of more than one substance.
Examples: kool-aid, cereal, salad, soup, laundry.

What is a solution? A solution is a homogeneous mixture of one or more solutes dissolved in a solvent.
•solvent: the substance in which a solute dissolves to
produce a homogeneous mixture
•solute: the substance that dissolves in a solvent to
produce a homogeneous mixture
Note that the solvent is the substance that is present in the
greatest amount.
Many different kinds of solutions exist. For example, a
solute can be a gas, a liquid or a solid. Solvents can also be gases, liquids or solids. CB/IX/2122 Is matter around us pure 7 of 21 What is a solution?

CB/IX/2122 Is matter around us pure 9 of 21 Significant Features of Solution Solution is normally a homogeneous mixture.
The particles of a solution are even smaller than 1 nm (10-9 meter)
in diameter and hence, these are not visible from the naked eyes.
The path of light is not visible in a solution.
The dissolved particles cannot be separated from the mixture by
the simple process of filtration.
The dissolved particles do not settle down when it left undisturbed.
At a given temperature, when no more solute can be dissolved in a
solution, it is known as ‘saturated solution.’
At a given temperature, the amount of the dissolved particles
present in the saturated solution, is known as solubility.’

Suspension A suspension is a heterogeneous mixture in which the solute particles do not dissolve, but rather remain suspended throughout the bulk of the medium, is known as ‘suspension.’
CB/IX/2122 Is matter around us pure 15 of 21
Significant Features of Suspension Particles of a suspension are clearly visible from the naked eye.
The particles of a suspension scatter a beam of light that
passes through it and likewise, its path is visible.
The salute particles can be separated from the mixture by the
simple process of filtration.

What is a colloidal solution? A colloid is a mixture where very small particles of one substance are evenly distributed throughout another substance. They appear very similar to solutions, but the particles are suspended in the solution rather than fully dissolved. The difference between a colloid and a suspension is that the particles will not settle to the bottom over a period of time, they will stay suspended or float. An example of a colloid is milk. Milk is a mixture of liquid butterfat globules dispersed and suspended in water.

Significant Features of Colloid The size of colloid particles is too small to see from the naked eye.
Colloid particles are big enough to scatter a beam of light
passing through it and make the path visible.
Colloid particles cannot be separated from the mixture by
the simple process of filtration.
The special filtration technique i.e. centrifugation, can be
