10.
List the various types of homogeneous and heterogeneous mixtures with examples.
1.
| Mixture | Compounds |
|---|---|
| 1. elements or compounds just mix retaining the properties of a constituent substance | 1. Element reacts to form a new substance that has totally different properties. |
| 2. A mixture has a variable composition | 2. The composition of the new substance or compound is fixed. |
| 3. The constituent can be separated fairly easily by physical methods. | 3. The constituents can be separated only by chemical methods. |
2.
| metal | Non-metal |
|---|---|
| 1. metals are solids at room temperature. | 1. Non-metals may be a gas, a liquid or a solid at room temperature. |
| 2. metals have a shiny metallic lustre. Their shining can be intensified by polishing. | 2. Non-metals have a dull non-metallic lustre. |
| 3. metals are hard substances. | 3. Non-metals have a hardness of varying category |
| 4. Metals are malleable. | 4. non-metals are non-malleable |
| 5. metals are ductile and can be drawn into wires. | 5. Non-metals are not ductile and cannot be drawn into wires. |
| 6. metals have high specific gravity. | 6. non-metals have low specific gravity. |
| 7. metals are good conductors of heat and electricity. | 7. non-metals are bad conductors of electricity, except graphite which is a good conductor of electricity. |
| 8. metals form alloys with other metals. | 8. non-metals do not form alloys with other non-metals. |
3.
Given below is a comparison of two types of changes:
| Physical changes | Chemical Changes |
|---|---|
| 1. Changes take place only in properties such as colour, physical state, density, etc. |
1. Change result in the formation of new chemical substance(S) |
| 2. Change in temporary | 2. Change in permanent |
| 3. original Substance(s) can be obtained back easily | 3. original substance(s) cannot be obtained back easily. |
| 4. Chemical properties of the substance remain unchanged even after the change | 4. New substances with different properties are formed. |
4.
1. Centrifugation is the process of separating suspended particles from a liquid-like colloid by churning the liquid at high speed. The principle is that denser particles are forced to the bottom and lighter stay at the top when spun rapidly.
2. The mixture is taken in a closed bottle and rotated at a high speed. The heavy particles settle at the bottom while light particles remain behind. For example, to separate cream from milk, milk is churned for 2-3 minutes. Cream being lighter than milk floats at the top of the mixture.
3. Applications of centrifugation:
(a) Used in washing machines to squeeze out water from clothes.
(b) Used in laboratories to separate colloidal particles from their solutions.
(c) Used in Diagnostic labs for blood and urine test.
5.
Comparison of properties of true solution, colloidal solution, and suspension
| Property | True solution | Colloidal solution | Suspension |
|---|---|---|---|
| (1) Appearance | homogeneous and transparent | Heterogeneous and translucent | heterogeneous and opaque |
| (2) particle size | < 1 nm (10-7 cm) | 1 nm - 100 nm | > 100 nm (10-5 cm) |
| (3) Visibility | particles are not visible even with a powerful microscope | Particles can be seen with a high power microscope | particles can be seen with naked eyes |
| (4) Stability | Stable | Stable | Unstable |
| (5) Diffusion | Diffuse rapidly | Diffuse slowly | Do not diffuse |
| (6) Filterability | Pass through filter paper | passes through filter paper | can be separated by filter paper |
| Example | NaCI dissolved in water | Blood | Mud water. |
Test of a colloidal solution or a suspension.
(i) A colloidal solution is turbid and particle settles down on adding a salt. In a suspension, particles settle down on keeping under the influences of gravity.
(ii) If the particles in a heterogeneous and opaque solution can be seen with naked eyes and get settl on keeping, then it is a suspension.
6.
Select of colloids on the basis of type, dispersed phase and dispersion medium:
| Colloids | Dispersing medium | Dispersed phase | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| fog, clouds, mist, clouds smoke, automobile exhaust |
Gas |
Liquid solid |
aerosol aerosol |
| shaving cream, milk, face cream, writing ink, blood, paint milk of magnesia, mud |
Liquid |
gas liquid solid |
foam emulsion sol |
| foam, rubber, sponge, pumice jelly, cheese, butter, colored gemstone |
Solid |
gas liquid slid |
Foam gel solid sol |
7.
Comparison of properties of a true solution, colloidal solution, and suspension
| Property | True solution | Colloidal solution | Suspension |
|---|---|---|---|
| (1) Appearance | homogeneous and transparent | Hetrogeneous and transluscent | hetrogeneous and opaque |
| (2) particle size | < 1 nm (10-7 cm) | 1 nm - 100 nm | > 100 nm (10-5 cm) |
| (3) Visibility | particles are not visible even with a powerful microscope | Particles can be seen with a high power microscope | particles can be seen with naked eyes |
| (4) Stablity | Stable | Stable | Unstable |
| (5) Diffusion | Diffuse rapidly | Difuse slowly | Do not diffuse |
| (6) Filtrability | Pass-through filter paper | passes through filter paper | can be separated by filter paper |
| Example | NaCI dissolved in watre | Blood | Mud water. |
Test of a colloidal solution or a suspension.
(i) A colloidal solution is turbid and particle settles down on adding a salt. In a suspension, particles settle down on keeping under the influences of gravity.
(ii) If the particles in a heterogeneous and opaque solution can be seen with naked eyes and get settled on keeping, then it is a suspension.
(b) (i) decrease of temperature
(ii) Increase of temperature.

(a) Various points of distinction between a chemical compound and a mixture are summarised below:
| Characteristics | Pure substance or compound | Mixture |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Composition | The elements in a compound are present in definite proportion by weight. | The ingredients of a mixture may be present in varying ratios. |
| 2. Homogeneity | A compound is always homogeneous | A mixture may be homogeneous (solution) or heterogeneous. |
| 3. Properties | A compound has entirely different properties from those of its constituents. | Properties of a mixture are an average of the properties of its constituents. |
| 4. Separation | The constituents of a compound cannot be separated by simple separation techniques. | The constituents of a mixture can be separated by simple methods. |
| 5. Energy changs | Energy in the form of heat, light or electricity is either evolved or absorbed when a compound is formed | There is generally no energy change when a mixture is formed from its constituents. |
| 6. volume change | At constant temperature and pressure, the formation of a compound may involve either no change or a large change in volume. | At constant temperature and pressure, the formation of a mixture involves either very little or no change in volume. |
(b) Homogeneous mixture is brass, tincture of iodine.
