(D) A mixture of a solid in another solid

Answer 1

Explanation:

Option (D) will correct

Answer 2

Answer:

Among the listed, the heterogeneous mixture is the mixture of a solid in another solid. Option D

Explanation:

Heterogeneous mixture is mixture that contains non-uniform composition throughout it. Heterogeneous mixtures will have different amounts of the components that constitute it in different samples of the same mixture (no two samples of a heterogeneous mixture has the same composition).

Examples of heterogeneous mixtures include sugar and sand ( mixture of solid in solid), ice cube and soda in a glass, cereal in milk and blood.

Homogeneous mixture is mixture in which the components that make up the mixture are uniformly distributed throughout the mixture. This means that any sample taken from the mixture will have the exact same proportions of the components of the mixture.

Examples of homogeneous mixtures include air, sugar water, steel and rain water.
