When we mix one substance into another, we create a dispersion. This term is pretty general and just means one component is scattered (dispersed) throughout another. What makes dispersions interesting is the size of the dispersed particles, which dictates their properties and how we classify them.

We generally categorize dispersions into three main groups based on the size of the dispersed phase particles:
