Soluble
Capable of being dissolved
solutions, size
(0.01- 1 nm in size)
solutions, filtered?
can’t be filtered
solutions, separate?
won’t separate upon standing (won’t settle to bottom)
solutions, define
individual atoms, ions, and molecules dissolved in a solvent
solutions, light?
light passes through, no Tyndall effect
solutions, homo or hetero?
homogeneous
solutions, examples
sugar in water, alcohol in water, NaCl in water
colloids, size
(1 nm- 1000 nm)
colloids, filtered?
pass through filter paper, *can’t be separated by filtration
colloids, separate?
stay suspended by molecular motion of dispersing medium
colloids, define
particles can’t be seen by the naked eye
colloids, light?
show the Tyndall effect, scatter light
colloids, homo or hetero?
mostly homogeneous (to naked eye), boardering heterogeneous
colloids, examples
jello, fog, smoke
