Solid, liquid and gas are the three states of matter, and mixtures of them can be formed in a variety of ways. The simplest kind of mixture is a solution. The solid disappears because it is broken up into particles that are too small to be seen. We can measure how much solid dissolves in a certain mass of liquid. This is called the solubility. In a suspension, the particles are small enough so that they don't settle out as sediment but are just large enough to be seen. A suspension is one kind of colloid. Colloids are substances that have mixtures of states. A jelly has some properties like a solid and some like a liquid. Some very useful materials are mixtures. These include emulsions, solutions and alloys. We will consider the various types of mixtures in this title.
