PURE SUBSTANCE |
MIXTURE |
• Pure substance consists of a single type of substance . | • Mixture consists of two or more pure substances. |
• Pure substance cannot be separated into other substances by physical methods | • Mixture can be separated into its components by physical methods. |

5. Concentration of Solution
The amount of solute present in a given amount (mass or volume) of solution.
Concentration of a solution = Amount of solute / amount of solvent
The concentration of a solution can be expressed as mass by mass percentage or as mass by volume percentage.
Mass by mass percentage of a solution = Mass of solute × 100/ Mass of solution
Mass by volume percentage of a solution = Mass of solute ×100/Volume of solution
a) on the basis of size of solute particles:
True solution |
Sol [ Colloid] |
Suspension |
• Homogeneous | • Heterogeneous | • Heterogeneous |
• Size of solute particles is less than 1 n m or 10-9 m . | • Size of solute particles is between 1 nm to 1000 nm. | • Size of solute particles is more than 1000 nm. |
• Particles cannot pass through filter paper | • Particles can pass through filter paper. | • Particles cannot pass thorough filter paper. |
• Stable | • Stable and settle only on centrifugation | • Unstable and settle down on its own. |
• Solution of sodium chloride in water, sugar & water. | • Milk , Fog | • muddy water, chalk & water, • smoke in the air. |
Colloidal solution is a heterogeneous mixture. It consists of two phases:-
(i) Dispersed phase : component present in small proportion
(ii) Dispersion medium : component present in large proportion
The particles of colloid are large enough to scatter a beam of light passing through it and make its path visible. Thus, they show Tyndall effect.
The colloidal particles are moving at random in a zigzag motion in all directions. This type
of zig-zag motion of colloidal particles is called Brownian movement.
b) On the basis of amount of solute:
Unsaturated solution |
Saturated Solution |
Supersaturated solution |
A solution which has lesser amount of solute that it can dissolve at a given temperature is known as unsaturated solution. | A solution which has maximum amount of solute that it can dissolve at a given temperature is known as saturated solution. | A solution which can dissolve amount of solute by increasing temperature saturated solution is known as supersaturated solution. |
c) On the basis of nature of solvent
Aqueous solution |
Non-Aqueous solution |
The solution in which the solvent is water is known as aqueous solution. | The solution in which the solvent is other than water (ether, alcohol or aceton) known as non-aqueous solution. |
Q.1 Classify the following substances into true solutions and colloidal solutions. Milk , ink , starch dissolved in water.
Q.2 A solution has been prepared by dissolving 5g of urea in 95 g of water. What is the mass percent of urea in the solution?
Q.3 Give an example of an aqueous solution in which gas is dissolved.
Changes that do not result in the production of a new substance.
• If you melt a block of ice, you still have H2O at the end of the change.
• If you break a bottle, you still have glass
Examples : melting, freezing, condensing, breaking, crushing, cutting, and bending.
- Changes that result in the production of another substance.
• As in the case of autumn leaves, a change in color is a clue to indicate a chemical change.
• a half eaten apple that turns brown.

7.Alloys
A material that has metallic properties and is composed of two or more chemical elements of which at least one is a metal .
• These cannot be separated into their components by physical methods.
• However, these are considered as mixture because these show the properties of its
constituents and can have variable composition.
The benefit of alloys is that you can combine metals that have varying characteristics to create an end product that is stronger, more flexible, or otherwise desirable to manufacturers.
• Aluminium alloys are extensively used in the production of automotive engine parts.
• Copper alloys have excellent electrical and thermal performance, good corrosion
resistance, high ductility and relatively low cost.
• Stainless steel alloys are used for many commercial applications such as watch
straps, cutlery etc.
• Titanium alloys have high strength, toughness and stiffness & are used in aerospace
structures .
Q,1 Why should we use alloys instead of pure metals?
