Explain the following giving examples
(a) Saturated solution
(b) Pure substance
(c) Colloid
(d) Suspension

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

(a) Saturated solution :- Solution in which no more solute can be dissolved at a particular temperature is known as saturated solution. For example in aqueous solution of sugar no more sugar can be dissolved at room temperature.
(b) Pure Substance :- Any substance is said to be pure if and only if it is made up of single type of particles means all the particles of that substance should be of same chemical nature. For example water, sugar, salt etc.
(c) Colloid :- A colloid is a heterogeneous mixture whose particles are not as small as solution but they are so small that cannot be seen by naked eye. When a beam of light is passed through a colloid, then the path of the light becomes visible. For example milk, smoke etc.
(d) Suspensio :- A suspension is a heterogeneous mixture in which solids are dispersed in liquids. The solute particles in suspension do not dissolve but remain suspended throughout the medium. For example paints, muddy water, chalk water mixtures etc.
