a solution
a solution
It is heterogeneous since some of the powder settled to the bottom. If all the powder had mixed in, it would be homogeneous.
This is a homogeneous mixture.
First of all, what is homogeneous? Wikipedia has a good definition for it, "A substance that is uniform in composition," and from Wikipedia's definition we can now judge whether or not tea is homogeneous. It really depends on what kind of tea it is. If the tea has no leaves, or no particles that you can see in the bottom... and it is just the tea (liquid) itself then it is a homogeneous solution, but if there are residues/particles/tea leaves on the bottom is no longer homogeneous but a heterogeneous mixture. Note: Not only do you look in the bottom, but look at the tea itself too. :)
A heterogeneous mixture with large particles is likely to be the least stable at rest over time. This is because the large particles have a tendency to settle at the bottom due to gravity, leading to separation of the components of the mixture.
In homogeneous mixture very fine particles of the substance are suspended and they are so fine that forconsiderabletime, these particles do not settle at the bottom and are evenly spread in the liquid. While in saturated solution, the soluble solution is dissolved to the maximum capacity of the liquid. So the suspension looks opaque and solution lookstransparent.
A mixture in which small particles of a substance are dispersed throughout a gas or liquid. If a suspension is left undisturbed, the particles are likely to settle to the bottom. The particles in a suspension are larger than those in either a colloid or a solution. Muddy water is an example of a suspension e.g. the residue at the bottom of the container
These particles will settle to the bottom of the container.
In science, a suspension is a heterogeneous mixture in which solid particles remain distributed throughout a liquid without settling to the bottom or floating to the top. This is different from a solution because the solid particles remain distinct from the liquid part of the mixture where in a solution, the solid particles are indistinct from the liquid (solutions are homogeneous).
Decantation involves pouring a mixture into a container and allowing it to settle. The heavier particles settle at the bottom, while the lighter liquid is poured off into a separate container. This process is used to separate a solid from a liquid in a mixture.
An example of a homogeneous mixture is salt water, where the salt is evenly dissolved throughout the water without forming separate layers or settling at the bottom.
