Answer:

(a) Air is said to be Homogeneous mixture of different gases because it contains different gases like Nitrogen ,oxygen, carbon dioxide, argon, etc. This is said to be homogeneous mixture because the constituent cannot be distinguished unlike heterogeneous mixture.

(b) Water is capable of dissolving a variety of different substances, which is why it is such a good solvent. And, water is called the "universal solvent" because it dissolves more substances than any other liquid.

(c) It is said that there is no alternative to water for cleaning purposes. Water is provided by nature. Water is available in abundance.So as there is more water on Earth we use water for cleaning purposes. We do not use other substances because some substances are very expensive and some substances are very scare .

Hope you find the answer helpful.
