Learn about the different types of mixtures - solutions, suspensions, and colloids - and how to separate them. Explore the characteristics of pure substances and the properties of homogeneous and heterogeneous mixtures.

CHAPTER 2 Activity 3 Solutions, Suspensions, & Colloids
WHAT DO YOU THINK??? • One way to get different types of materials is to just mix them together. Lots of different things can happen when materials are mixed. You can get some good food or you can get dynamite. Each kind of mixture has its own characteristics. Taking mixtures apart is a different story. • Is it easier to separate milk from coffee or milk from a bowl of cereal? Why????
WHICH ONE IS EASIER? • Milk and cereal- • You can use a colander. • Milk and coffee- You would have to boil it (distill it)
MATTER Pure substance Mixture
PURE SUBSTANCES VS. MIXTURES Pure substances contain only one type of particle. Refer to a, b, and c above. Mixtures contain more than one type of particle. Refer to d above.
MATTER Mixture Pure substance Homogeneous Heterogeneous
MIXTURES Homogeneous or heterogeneous?????
In a HOMOGENEOUS MIXTURE, the different components are not individually visible. Can be classified as a solution or a colloid
In a HETEROGENEOUS MIXTURE, the different components are individually visible and will tend to separate over time. Referred to as a suspension
MATTER Mixture Pure substance Homogeneous Heterogeneous suspension solution colloid
SOLUTIONS • Are homogeneous mixtures • Contain a solute and a solvent • are transparent (clear) • Air, salt water, metal alloys, are solutions solute solvent
SOLVENT SOLUTE SALT Oxygen WATER Nitrogen
SUGAR GLASS • Sugar glass is a fake glass made from kitchen ingredients. It's used in film stunts because the edges aren't as sharp and dangerous. • It is a solution of water, light corn syrup, sugar and cream of tartar.
COLLOIDS • Homogeneous • Solute particles are larger than those in a solution • Most commonly transparent • A liquid-liquid colloid is an emulsion • Difficult to distinguish from a solution with the naked eye. So how can you tell solutions and colloids apart?
THE TYNDALL EFFECT When a beam of light is shone through a colloid, the larger solute particles scatter the beam of light, enabling you to see the beam as it goes through the mixture. So how can you tell solutions and colloids apart? Solutions don’t scatter light, so you won’t see the beam going through the solution
EMULSION Is a liquid-liquid colloid. Milk is a natural emulsion of liquid fat in a watery liquid
Emulsion Is a liquid-liquid colloid. A. Two immiscible liquids, not yet emulsified. B. An emulsion of Phase II dispersed in Phase I. C. The unstable emulsion progressively separates.
SUSPENSIONS • Heterogeneous mixture with very large solute particles • Particles can be seen with the naked eye • Particles will settle out in time (OJ, Aerosol Cans) • The particles can be separated with a filter
SEPARATING CRUDE OIL Crude oil • homogeneous mixture • Separated using a process called fractional distillation • Different substances have different boiling points • http://www.chem-ilp.net/labTechniques/FractionalDistillationlAnimation.htm • http://www.footprints-science.co.uk/fractional.htm
