## Graphic
We're going to filling out a [Graphic](https://docs.google.com/drawings/d/1W0Hwm2WvSqHaaAvJ90Y8A0duXXZ7k2Jy9J0ZSfBcYuc/copy?usp=sharing) as we go through this section. You can find a template on JupiterEd or make your own.

## Mixtures
If I mix these things together, what would I be making?





---
### A cake of course!
> What if I decided after I mixed that I wanted to make Jello instead. Would I be able to separate everything back out again?
>
!!!
Why or why not? How about just the flour or the sugar?

## Heterogeneous Mixtures
A bag of jellybeans is a mixture that I can separate out.
!!!
(If you're like me you can pick out the popcorn ones and throw them away!)

---
!!! tip: Heterogeneous Mixtures
* Heterogeneous (Hetero-: different -geneous: kind)
* Mixtures that have components that are not uniform or have regions with different properties are called **heterogeneous mixtures**.
* You can pick out the different parts out (or at least see the different parts)


---
## Homogeneous Mixtures
Sometimes mixtures don't look like mixtures at all.


---
## Solutions
When we added sugar to water, we couldn't see the sugar because it dissolved.
!!! tip: Solutions
You may already know that when we mix something together into a liquid it is called a **solution**.

---
## Classifying Solutions
!!! tip: Dilute Solution
When a small smount of solute is dissolved in the solvent it becomes a **dilute solution**.
!!! tip: Concentrated Solution
When a large amount of solute is dissolved in the solvent it becomes a **concentrated solution**.

---
## Saturated Solutions
In our lab, we added sugar until no more would dissolve. When solutions reach this point, they are called **saturated solutions**.
If we were to continue to heat up our water, we could add more sugar. The solution then is called a **supersaturated solution**.
