Question

fresh lemonade is a murky yellow color. if you leave it sitting for a few minutes, you might need to stir it again before you drink it. what type of mixture is lemonade? a solution b suspension c colloid d compound

Explanation:

• A solution is a homogeneous mixture where particles are uniformly distributed and do not settle out. Lemonade is not a solution as it is murky and particles settle.
• A compound is a pure substance formed by chemical combination of elements, not a mixture.
• A colloid has particles that are larger than in a solution but do not settle out quickly. Lemonade's description (murky, needs stirring after sitting) fits a suspension. In a suspension, larger particles are temporarily dispersed and will settle over time.

Answer:

B. suspension
