Colloids are____ A.Homogeneous mixtures that seem to be heterogeneous B.Heteregoneous mixtures that seem to be hmogeneous C.Suspensions that look like solutions D.Solutions that look like colloids
B.Heteregoneous mixtures that seem to be homogeneous
Explanation:
A heterogeneous mixture is one in which the two phases (the dispersed phase and the continuous) are either of different states (e.g. solid in liquid), or if they are of the same state, one is not soluble in the other (e.g. oil in water). For these reasons colloids are generally considered to be heterogeneous mixtures in the chemical sense, although some may still regard them as homogeneous in the physical sense (i.e. the properties are uniform as one moves through the material, rather than being, for example, very high viscosity at the bottom of the container, and lower viscosity at the top).
