Colloidal gels and suspensions are complex systems in which microscopic particles, ranging from nanometres to micrometres, aggregate to form either space‐spanning networks or dispersed arrangements.

Colloidal suspensions heterogenous mixtures of particles with diameters of about 2-500 nanometers, which are permanently suspended in a second phase, usually a liquid. Owing to the small particle size ...

Students will learn how to categorize matter as either pure substances or mixtures. Students will apply tests, based on physical properties of matter samples, to determine whether a mixture is ...

The film discusses the importance of solutions in various aspects of life and science. It explains how solutions differ from suspensions and colloids, illustrating the process of dissolving substances ...
