24
Q

is a mixture that does not have a uniform composition and in which the individual substances remain distinct

A

Heterogenous mixture

25
Has a uniform composition, also called as solution
Homogenous mixture
26
are mixtures containing particles that settle out if left undisturbed.
Suspension
27
are heterogeneous mixtures of intermediate sized particles (between 1nm and 1000 nm) and do not settle out.
Colloids
28
is when dispersed colloid particles scatter light.
Tyndal effect
29
are homogeneous mixtures that contain two or more substances called the solute and solvent.
Solution
30
• A substance that dissolves in a solvent is?
Soluble
31
• Two liquids that are soluble in each other in any proportion are
Miscible
32
• A substance that does not dissolve in a solvent is
Insoluble
33
• Two liquids that can be mixed but separate shortly after are
Immiscible
34
uses differences in the boiling points of substances to separate a homogeneous
Distillation
35
solid substances are separated from liquids and solutions.
Filtratiom
36
technique separates substances on the basis of differences in solubility in a solvent
Chromatography
37
is a traditional way of separating the palay seeds from the hay by utilizing the wind or blowing air.
Winnowing
38
is a process of separating components of mixture of metallic and nonmetallic substance by using a magnet.
Magnetism
39
is a physical water treatment using gravity to separate the suspended solids from the liquid portion.
Sedimentation
40
is a method of separating components of mixtures by removing a layer of liquid, generally one from the settled solid particles. The purpose is to produce a clean decant (liquid portion), or to remove undesired liquid from the precipitate (or other layers).
Decantation
41
one of the easiest way to make a turbid solution clean is by this process. It describes the chemical process of contact and adhesion where the dispersed particles form larger cluster allowing the easy separation from water.
Flocculation
42
using a coagulating agent to remove the impurities of an unclean or unclear solution. It allows the removal of suspended and colloidal particles which is the first stage in solid-liquid separation.
Coagulation
43
0used to separate soluble solids from liquids utilizing heat, i.e. in salt solution salt, can be separated from water by evaporation.
Evaporation
44
characteristics that do involve change in a chemical makeup of substance
chemical property
45
do not involve in a change in the chemical substance of a mixture
physical property
