A colloidal mixture is sometimes called a colloidal system, a colloidal suspension, or simply a "colloid." The smallest dimension of the minor component of a colloidal mixture can range from approximately one nanometer (1 billionth of a meter) to one micrometer (1 millionth of a meter). Examples of liquid colloidal mixtures are milk, paints, and muddy water. The medium can be a gas, in the cases of smog, smoke, or aerosol sprays. Some solids are considered to be colloidal mixtures, as in steel or foam rubber. A colloidal mixture is sometimes called a colloidal system, a colloidal suspension, or simply a "colloid."

What else can I help you with?
What is a mixture of solid and liquid which will separate if allowed to stand?
sand and water.
In the presence of an emulsifying agent a mixture of oil and water becomes a .?
Water and oil form a colloidal dispesion.
Is starch a colloid?
Yes, starch is considered a colloidal substance. It forms a colloidal dispersion when it is mixed with water, forming a stable mixture where the starch molecules are suspended in the liquid without settling out.
Why does light doesn't pass trough during colloidal mixture?
Light may not pass through a colloidal mixture because the particles in the mixture are larger than the wavelengths of light, causing scattering rather than transmission. This scattering of light is what makes colloidal suspensions appear cloudy or opaque.
Is made up of 2 or more pure substances jumbled together either homogeneously or heterogeneously?
This is a colloidal mixture, such as milk, the mixture though not made of soluble solids, colloidal solids are actually held in suspension in the solvent (water, alcohol, or oil) and do not readily precipitate from the fluid.
What are the colloidal mixture?
A colloidal mixture contain particles with dimension under 1 000 nm.
Which type of mixture has particles large enough to scatter light?
This is a colloidal mixture.
What is colloidal dispersion?
When particles are suspended in a viscous (thick) mixture. Lots of oatmeal based lotions are colloidal.
What are the 3 kinds of mixture?
In science, there are three types of mixtures. These mixture types are, suspension mixture, colloidal mixture and a solution.
Is homogenized milk a compound or a mixture?
Homogenised milk is a homogeneous colloidal dispersion of the milk solids in the liquid milk. The colloidal particles are sized as per the requirements in high-speed colloidal mills. It is not a heterogeneous mixture.
What is a mixture of solid and liquid which will separate if allowed to stand?
sand and water.
Is butter a heterogeneous or homogeneous mixture?
Butter is a colloidal solution as it shows Tyndall effect. Tyndall effect is scattering of beam of light by the particles of colloidal solution. The dispersed phase in butter is liquid and dispersion medium is solid. The colloidal solution is always a part of heterogeneous mixture. Therefore, Butter is a heterogenous mixture.
Will colloid particles eventually settle out?
They won't because a colloidal mixture is a perfect solution...
In the presence of an emulsifying agent a mixture of oil and water becomes a .?
Water and oil form a colloidal dispesion.
What type of mixture is ice cream before it's cooled?
Ice cream, like milk, is a colloidal mixture. It has tiny droplets of fat floating in water.
Is starch a colloid?
Yes, starch is considered a colloidal substance. It forms a colloidal dispersion when it is mixed with water, forming a stable mixture where the starch molecules are suspended in the liquid without settling out.
What is the Mixture where the particles never settle out but are large enough to reflect light?
This type of mixture is called a colloidal suspension. The particles in a colloidal suspension are larger than those in a solution, making them scatter light and giving the mixture a cloudy appearance. Despite being suspended, the particles do not settle out due to Brownian motion keeping them dispersed throughout the medium.
