42. Milk is a natural A.Solution B.Emulsion C.Mixture D.Suspension
Answer: Option B Solution: An emulsion is a mixture of two or more liquids that are normally immiscible (nonmixable or unblendable). Emulsions are part of a more general class of two-phase systems of matter called colloids. Although the terms colloid and emulsion are sometimes used interchangeably, emulsion should be used when both the dispersed and the continuous phase are liquids. In an emulsion, one liquid (the dispersed phase) is dispersed in the other (the continuous phase). Examples of emulsions include vinaigrettes, milk, mayonnaise, and some cutting fluids for metal working. The photo-sensitive side of photographic film is also an example of a colloid. The word “emulsion” comes from the Latin word for “to milk”, as milk is (among other things) an emulsion of milk fat and water.
