Chemistry
Draw a table to differentiate - True solutions, colloidal solutions & suspensions - with respect to :
(i) Type of mixture
(ii) Solute particles in the mixture
Answer
| Category | True solutions | Colloidal solutions | Suspensions |
|---|---|---|---|
| Type of mixture | Homogenous mixtures, clear & transparent in nature | Heterogenous mixtures, turbid in nature | Heterogenous mixtures of undissolved particles in dispersion medium. |
| Solute particles in the mixture | Dispersed substances - Can pass through filter paper. -Can pass through semipermeable membrane. | Dispersed substance - Can pass through filter paper. - Cannot pass through semipermeable membrane. | Dispersed substances - Cannot pass through filter paper. -Cannot pass through semipermeable membrane. |
