Lesson 3: Colloid

Activity 1
Investigating Colloids

Let’s find out: What do you observe in some mixtures as you pass a beam of light
through them?

Let’s use the materials: 3 pcs of transparent disposable cups, plastic spoon
1 teaspoon flour, 1teaspoon salt, small laser pen or flashlight.
1 teaspoon milk, apron/lab gown, hairnet/ponytail, and rugs.

Let’s do it this way:

1. Place three disposable cups on the top of the table.

2. Fill the cups with clean water.

3. Put 1 teaspoon flour in one cup and stir. Mark this as setup A.

4. Put 1 teaspoon salt in the other cup and stir. Mark this as setup B.

5. Put 1 teaspoon milk in the other cup and stir. Mark this as setup C.

6. Using the small laser pen/ flashlight, pass a beam of light through each of the
mixtures from the side of each glass. Observe the setups.

Let’s state your observations:
