Homogeneous mixtures have uniform composition and properties throughout and are known as solutions. For e.g, when sugar/salt is dissolved in water it forms a solution in which the sugar/salt and water are uniformly mixed (the sugar is dissolved uniformly in water). e.g.air

Heterogenous mixtures are those which aren't uniform in composition and properties throughout e.g. granite which consists of quartz, feldspar and mica and you can identify each of the substances sepaately in the mixture. Heterogeneous mixtures can be suspensions or colloids.

NOTE: None of these mixtures are compounds.

Homogeneous mixtures contain a single phase, whereas heterogeneous mixtures have many phases. ~IHATEe2020~

What is the difference between a homogeneous and heterogeneous mixtures in a diagram?

In a homogeneous mixture, the components are uniformly distributed and not visually distinguishable, forming a single phase. In a heterogeneous mixture, the components are not uniformly distributed, leading to visible differences or phases within the mixture. In a diagram, this difference would be represented by a uniform composition in a homogeneous mixture and distinct regions of different compositions in a heterogeneous mixture.


Is a popsicle a heterogeneous?

A popsicle is not a heterogeneous mixture but a homogeneous mixture. This is because a popsicle is the same all throughout.


Is sea water a homogeneous or heterogeneous mixture?

Sea water is a homogeneous mixture because only one phase can be seen when you look at it (similar to homogenized milk).


Is popsicle a compound or heterogeneous mixture or homogeneous mixture?

A homogeneous mixture is one that's uniform in composition, though not necessarily at every level. At the base level of observation, a popsicle could be considered homogenous, as it is a single block of flavored ice. However, smaller in scale, popsicles are more likely to be heterogenous, due to the mixing of flavor and water not necessarily being purely arranged.


Is muddy water homogeneous or heterogeneous?

Muddy water is a heterogeneous mixture because it consists of visibly different particles suspended in water. The particles can settle over time, showing that muddy water is not uniform in composition.

Is paint a homogeneous mixture or heterogeneous mixture?

Paint is a homogeneous mixture because it has the same uniform appearance. Heterogeneous mixtures are different because there are different visibly differences in the mixture. Examples of heterogeneous mixtures are a bowl of raisin bran and mineral rock.


Is yogurt a heterogeneous or homogeneous mixture?

Yogurt is a heterogeneous mixture because it is made up of visibly different components such as milk, bacteria cultures, and fruit or flavorings that are not evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
