Types of Mixtures A mixture can be made of one state of matter or more. These mixtures can either be Homogenous or Heterogenous mixtures. They include: i. Solid Solid mixtures ii. Solid Liquid mixtures iii. Liquid Liquid mixtures
Solid Solid Mixtures. Solid Solid mixtures contain two or more solids. Example; Flour + Sand. Maize + Beans. These mixtures form Heterogenous mixtures.
Solid Liquid Mixtures Solid Liquid mixtures are formed by combining a solid and a liquid. Some solid liquid mixtures form homogeneous solutions while others mix to form heterogeneous mixtures. The process of mixing a solid and liquid to form a homogeneous mixture is called dissolving.
A solid that dissolves in a liquid is called a solute. A liquid that dissolves a solute is called a solvent. A solute and a solvent make a solution. salt + water (Solute) (Solvent) Solids that can dissolve in a liquid are said to be soluble. Salt solution (Solution)
Solids that cannot dissolve in liquids are said to be insoluble or non soluble. Solid Liquid Mixtures. Salt + water Homogeneous Sand + water Heterogeneous Flour + water Heterogeneous Sugar + water Homogeneous Glucose + water Homogeneous
Liquid Liquid Mixtures Liquid Liquid mixtures are formed by combining two or more liquids. Liquids that mix with other liquids are called Miscible liquids, they form a Homogeneous mixtures. Example; Milk + Water. Liquids that do not mix are called Immiscible liquids, they form Heterogeneous mixtures.
Example; Kerosene + water. Liquid Liquid Mixtures. Cooking oil + Water Kerosene + Water Kerosene + Cooking Oil Milk + Cooking Oil Water + Petrol Petrol + Kerosene Methylated spirit + Water Immiscible Immiscible Miscible Immiscible Immiscible Miscible Miscible
Gas Gas Mixtures Gas gas Mixtures contain two or more gases. Example; Nitrogen + Oxygen. These mixtures form Homogeneous mixtures since they mix uniformly.
