Solution

  1. Liquid in which a substance dissolves - Solvent
  2. Insoluble particles that settle to the bottom of a liquid - Sediment
  3. Substance that dissolves in a liquid - Solute
  4. Mixture that is formed when a solute dissolves in a solvent - Solution
  5. Mixture in which the insoluble particles stay mixed throughout another substance - Suspension

A colloid differs from a suspension in that the particles in a colloid are smaller and do not settle out when left undisturbed. This is because the particles in a colloid are dispersed throughout the mixture and are kept in suspension by the movement of the surrounding molecules.

The diagram cannot be completed as it is not provided.

Homogenised milk is different from fresh milk in that it has been processed to break down the fat molecules so that they stay integrated rather than separating out.

Smog is a colloid. This is because the particles of pollutants are dispersed throughout the air and do not settle out.

Cream is an emulsion, a type of colloid, where fat droplets are dispersed in water. Butter is a dispersion of water in fat, which is also a type of colloid.

Emulsifiers are chemicals that help mix two substances that would not normally mix well together, such as oil and water. They work by reducing the surface tension between the two substances, allowing them to form a stable, homogenous mixture.
