About
Mixtures: Matter
that consists of two or more substances that are not chemically combined is called
a mixture. Mixtures are classified according to how well they are mixed. Heterogeneous
mixtures are the least mixed. The particles of this mixture are large enough to
be seen and to separate. The particles will settle out on standing. An example
of this mixture would be sand and water. Homogeneous
mixtures are well mixed. The particles that make up this mixture are very small
and do not settle out when allowed to stand. Solutions and colloids are examples
of homogeneous mixtures. CONTENTS
