Every sample of matter is not a substance because a matter may include multiple substances. A substance contains only one kind of matter.
Is water an example of of homogeneous matter?
Yes, pure water is an example of homogeneous matter as long as it's one phase.
Is any material made up of only one substance homogeneous?
No, homogenous implies that any point of the sample is identical to any other point of the same sample. Take for example rock in vacuum, the irregularities and internal formations makes this non-homogenous.
What are the two types of mixture in matter?

The difference between a pure substance and a homogeneous misture?

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.
