Solutions and Suspensions

1. suspension

1.1. large particles in mixture cause light to scatter

1.2. e.g. oil and water

1.3. leaves a residue after filtration

1.4. usually cloudy

1.5. heterogeneous

1.5.1. components not uniformely distributed

1.5.2. components can be seen distinctly

2. solubility

2.1. saturated

2.2. dilute

2.3. concentrated

3. solutions

3.1. allows light to pass through without scatter

3.2. e.g. salt water and blood

3.3. homogeneous

3.3.1. same concentration

3.3.2. components uniformly distributed

3.4. liguid pass right through the filter paper, not leaving any residue during filtration
