Question

Sulphur powder is mixed with sand. What kind of mixture is formed? Give two reason in support of your answer.

Answer 1

Explanation:

A mixture in which particles are evenly or uniformly distributed throughout the mixture is known as homogeneous mixture. Whereas a mixture whose particles are not uniformly distributed is known as a heterogeneous mixture.

When sulfur powder is mixed with sand then this will lead to the formation of a heterogeneous mixture.

Also, in a heterogeneous mixture we can see the components easily.

Therefore, when sulphur powder is mixed with sand then it will be a heterogeneous mixture.
