Question

homogeneous mixture and heterogeneous mixture definitions​

Answer 1

Answer:

A homogeneous mixture is a mixture in which the composition is uniform throughout the mixture

A heterogeneous mixture is a mixture in which the composition is not uniform throughout the mixture. A phase is a separate layer in a heterogeneous mixture.

Answer 2

What is Homogeneous mixture ?

These are the types of mixtures in which the components mixed are uniformly distributed throughout the mixture. In other words, “they are uniform throughout”. We can observe only one phase of matter in a homogeneous mixture.

________________________________

Key points regarding such mixtures are:

• Particles are distributed uniformly
• We can’t judge a homogeneous mixture by just seeing it
• Homogeneous mixtures are also called solutions
• Uniform composition
• Example: rainwater, vinegar, etc.

What is Heterogeneous Mixture?

This is a type of mixture in which all the components are completely mixed and all the particles can be seen under a microscope. We can easily identify the components and more than one phase can be seen by naked eyes.

Key points regarding this type of mixture:

• Particles are distributed non uniformly
• We can judge a heterogeneous mixture by just seeing it
• Non-uniform composition
• Example: seawater, pizza, etc.
