Heterogeneous vs. Homogeneous: Mixtures

The document discusses the differences between homogeneous and heterogeneous mixtures. Homogeneous mixtures have a uniform composition throughout, while heterogeneous mixtures have a non-uniform composition with distinct components. Examples given include Cheerios being homogeneous and trail mix being heterogeneous. Solution-based mixtures like true solutions, colloidal solutions, and suspensions are also discussed. They differ in particle size of the solute and how the solute resides in and can be separated from the solvent. Various separation techniques are then outlined for different types of mixtures.

sedimentation
Solution-Based Mixtures

 True solution
 Colloidal solutions
 Suspensions

These solutions typically differ in


the particle size
of the solute.
Solution-Based Mixtures
 True solution: solute size: <1 nm
 Colloidal solutions:
solute size: 1 nm to 100 nm
 Suspensions: solute size: >100 nm

These solutions typically differ


in the manner in which the solutes reside in
the solvent.
Solution-Based Mixtures
 True solutions: The solute is dissolved and is
invisible
 Colloidal solutions: The solute is dispersed
uniformly throughout the solution; the presence of
the solute is visible, but you cannot lift it out
 Suspensions: The solute stays outside the solvent;
that is, the solute is suspended
These solutions typically differ
in the manner in which the solute can be separated
from the solvent.
