Shown here is a person shaving.  Under magnification, the shaving foam might look like the image above the shaver. What type of mixture does the foam demonstrate? Give your reasoning.

Foam is a colloid. Colloids includes gas dispersed in a liquid and it also includes gas dispersed in a solid

A student squeezes several oranges to make a glass of orange juice. The juice contains pieces of orange pulp mixed with the juice. Explain why this drink can be considered a combination of a suspension and a solution.

The juice contains sugars, plant pigments, and other chemicals dissolved in water. This is a solution. The pieces of orange pulp will rise to the top or settle to the bottom of the juice if it is allowed to sit. The pieces of pulp mixed with the juice form a suspension

On the right side, you can also select any answers or none at all. There is no wrong answer.

Explanation:

There are two main types of mixtures, homogeneous mixtures and heterogeneous mixtures. The components of a homogeneous mixture are evenly distributed throughout the mixture. The properties of a mixture are the same everywhere. The components of a heterogeneous mixture are not evenly distributed. Different regions of this mixture have different   properties.

Particles in a homogeneous mixture do not settle down or separate when left alone. Particles in a heterogeneous mixture eventually separate or settle when left alone.

• Colloids are a type of heterogeneous mixture that do not naturally settle out quickly, and can be separated with different methods.
• A suspension is another type of heterogeneous mixtures in which the components of the mixture will quickly settle out or can be filtered or separated.
