A heterogeneous mixture has two or more distinct phases with different characteristics. Because of this, two random samples of a heterogeneous mixture may have different compositions. For example, the phases in mud are the water and soil particles, which remain distinct from one another. These phases are not necessarily visible, but may exist as microscopic clusters or particles.
By contrast in a homogeneous mixture any two random samples will be identical.

What are characteristics of heterogeneous mixtures?
nothing
Do components in mixtures maintain their own characteristics?
It is true that components in mixtures maintain their own characteristics. The two types of mixtures are homogeneous mixture and heterogeneous mixture.
Is mixtures a homogeneous or heterogeneous?
Mixtures can be homogeneous but also heterogeneous.
Are all mixtures defined as heterogeneous?
all mixtures are defined as heterogeneous
Do heterogeneous mixtures combine to form compounds?
No. Heterogeneous mixtures are not compounds.
Is baking soda a compound heterogeneous mixtures or a homogeneous mixture?
its a heterogeneous mixtures
What is similar between homogeneous and heterogeneous?
both mixtures need atleast 2 components and at least one of the components has to be a liquid there are many other reasons
Are homogeneous mixtures and heterogeneous mixtures important in your daily life?
We are permanently surrounded by mixtures - homogeneous or heterogeneous !
Are heterogeneous mixtures?
if a substance is a mixture then it is heterogeneous.
Why are homogeneous mixtures easier to separate then heterogeneous mixtures?
There not. it is much easier to separate a heterogeneous mixture
What are the example of heterogeneous mixture?
HETEROGENEOUS - Heterogeneous mixtures are not uniform. The composition is not the same in all directions in mixtures. By: <... MXS ...> Llake_98 Markrey
Substances are divided into two classes?
Some people divide matter into pure substances and mixtures. Pure substances are elements and compounds. Mixtures include homogeneous and heterogeneous mixtures. Some people divide matter into homogeneous matter and heterogeneous matter. Homogeneous matter includes pure substances and homogeneous mixtures (solutions). Heterogeneous matter is heterogeneous mixtures.
