Step-by-step explanation:
A mixture of a solid and a liquid
The small clay particles become suspended in the water. This kind of mixture is called a suspension. Suspensions are opaque; that means they are cloudy and we cannot see through them very well. The sugar dissolves in the water and the mixture is called a solution. Solutions are clear; that means we can see through them.
A mixture of a liquid and a liquid
Milk is not a single substance, but actually a mixture of two liquids! The one liquid component in milk is water, and the other is fatty oil. The reason milk is opaque is that tiny droplets of the oil is suspended in the water. When some liquids are suspended in liquid, we call the mixture an emulsion. Like suspensions, emulsions tend to be opaque.A mixture of vinegar and water is clear, and that is a clue that the mixture is a solution.
Solutions are special kinds of mixtures in which the particles are so well mixed that they are not separated from each other. We cannot make out separate substances.
A mixture of a gas and a gas
We learnt in that Materials that the particles of gases are far apart. This means that gases can mix very easily, because it is easy for their particles to move in amongst each other. The air we breathe is not a single gas but actually a mixture of gases
