Want this question answered?
A homogeneous mixture is uniform in composition (some examples are dissolved salt in water, air, brewed tea or coffee, or wine) A heterogeneous mixture is a mixture that is not uniform (examples include: sand, oil in water, olive oil) While heterogeneous mixtures have particles that sometimes can be seen under a microscope, the particles of homogeneous mixtures are molecule-sized, causing them to look uniform even under a microscope Basically, homogeneous means the same all the way through. A solution of dissolved salt is homogeneous. Water with food colouring in it is homogeneous. Heterogeneous means different. Muddy water is an example of a heterogeneous mixture. A homogeneous mixture will have the substances in the mixture mixed smoothly, but a heterogeneous mixture will still have some regions of substance distinct in the mixture. Both are mixtures which means they can both be separated.
A mechanical mixture or heterogeneous mixture is a mixture with different parts that you can see. For example an omelette is a mechanical mixture because you can see the different parts that make up the omelette.
Well A sterling silver is an section in the pure substances and its also under elementents so it is a hetergeneous becuase it is a mixture and it has more than 2 pure substances
bacteria
No it can not.
homogeneous
If the pears were not in the gelatin it would be homogeneous, but since the pears are not uniformly distributed throughout the gelatin, it is considered heterogeneous. We are talking about visibility with the naked eye in regards to the classification, not taking the sample under a microscope. Nick
it is a uniform mixture which means it is homogeneous. sometimes the particles are visible to see under a microscope. air can also be described as a gaseous solution... i may be wrong so i hoped i helped;)
Milk is a colloid, and is, in fact, heterogeneous because if you look at it under a microscope you can see little globs of fat, but under the naked eye it will look like it is homogeneous
If you put it under a microscope, you will be able to see the heterogenous mixture form into different parts. Opposed to this, the homogenous mixture will look similar throughout the entire mixture - also when put under a microscope.

A solution I think
A heterogeneous mixture is a mixture that is not entirely even in that some regions have different concentrations or different substances in different regions. Opposite to a homogenous mixture which is total constant throughout the mixture.
Milk straight from the cow is a heterogeneous mixture with visibly various components, such as the fat the floats to the top. However, the milk you buy from a grocery store is "homogenized" meaning the fat has been whipped into smaller particles, and evenly distributed throughout the milk so the milk then becomes homogeneous.
Milk is a colloid, and is, in fact, heterogeneous because if you look at it under a microscope you can see little globs of fat, but under the naked eye it will look like it is homogeneous.
Though it may look uniform it is heterogeneous. If you look under a microscope it will become clear how heterogeneous it is.
