Answer 2

Answer:

1. Homogeneous situation can a mixture always be called a solution.

2. Solutions are homogeneous mixtures, but not all homogeneous mixtures are solutions.

3.  If we refer to the definition of a solution, we are told that all the solutes must be completely dissolved in the solvent with no excess.

4. All solutions are mixtures of two or more substances, but unless the mixture has a homogeneous distribution of solutes in the solvent, then the mixture is not a solution.
