. A colloid is: a. made from one state of matter suspended in another. b. a solute is mixed in a solution c. filled with bubbles and particles. d. a pure substance

The correct answer is a. made from one state of matter suspended in another.

A colloid is a mixture where fine particles of one substance are dispersed in another substance, and these particles do not settle out of the mixture. Examples of colloids include milk, fog, and mayonnaise.

are u sure?

Yes, I am sure. A colloid is indeed defined as a mixture in which one substance (the dispersed phase) is evenly distributed and suspended in another substance (the continuous phase). This fits best with option a. made from one state of matter suspended in another.

To clarify the other options:

  • b. a solute is mixed in a solution refers more specifically to a solution, not a colloid.
  • c. filled with bubbles and particles is too vague and not accurate in defining a colloid.
  • d. a pure substance is incorrect, as a colloid is a mixture, not a pure substance.
