Comprehensive Chemistry: Mixtures, Solutions,
and Colligative Properties with questions and well
verified answers actual exam!!! 2026
Heterogeneous mixture - ANSWER -Mixture with an uneven distribution throughout
Suspension - ANSWER -Heterogeneous mixture with particles that are so large that they
will settle out unless the mixture is constantly stirred
Colloid - ANSWER -Heterogeneous mixture that appears homogeneous, but the particles
are slightly larger than those in a solution and can be identified by the Tyndall effect
Tyndall effect - ANSWER -When light is scattered by colloidal particles dispersed in a
transparent medium
Solute - ANSWER -Substance that is dissolved
Solvent - ANSWER -Substance that is doing the dissolving; the dissolving medium
Immiscible - ANSWER -Liquids that are not soluble to each other and thus form separate
layers when mixed together
Miscible - ANSWER -Liquids that dissolve freely in one another in any proportion
