how useful are homogeneous mixture and heterogeneous mixture in our lives?
Answers
Explanation:
Homogeneous
You wake up in the morning and make yourself a cup of coffee. You pour the coffee in your cup, add milk, add sugar, and stir everything together. The result is a uniform cup of caffeinated goodness. Each sip should taste and look the same.
This is an example of a homogeneous mixture. In this type of mixture, the components are evenly distributed throughout and the mixture has a uniform appearance. You shouldn't be able to pick out the individual components. Additionally, you can describe a homogeneous mixture as having only one phase. A phase is any part of the mixture that has the same chemical properties and uniform distribution of the components.
The picture shows three ingredients: coffee, milk, and sugar. Next, we see two possible mixtures of these ingredients. A homogeneous mixture is a normal cup of coffee with a uniform blend of the ingredients. A heterogeneous mixture would have visible lumps of sugar and milk in the coffee.
