Homogeneous Mixture The prefixes “homo”- indicate sameness A homogeneous mixture has the same uniform appearance and composition throughout. Many homogeneous mixtures are commonly referred to as solutions
Particle size distinguishes homogeneous solutions from heterogeneous mixtures. Solutions have particles which are the size of atoms or molecules-too small to be seen. A colloid is a a homogeneous noncrystalline substance consisting of large molecules or ultramicroscopic particles of one substance dispersed through a second substance. Colloids include gels, sols, and emulsions; the particles do not settle, and cannot be separated out by ordinary filtering or centrifuging like those in a suspension
Heterogeneous Mixtures The prefixes: “hetero”- indicate difference. A heterogeneous mixture consists of visibly different substances. In contrast a suspension is a heterogeneous mixture of larger particles. These particles are visible and will settle out on standing. Examples of suspensions are: fine sand or silt in water or tomato juice .
A heterogeneous mixture is simply any mixture that is not uniform in composition - it's a non-uniform mixture of smaller constituent parts. Using various means, the parts in the mixture can be separated physically from one another.
