Yes, Argon (Ar) is an mono-atomic elementary gas, so it's PURE
First of all Argon is not a mixture , it is an elementArgon is colorless odorless, and tasteless.
Homogeneous refers to a mixture with uniform composition and properties, where the components are evenly distributed. Heterogeneous refers to a mixture with non-uniform composition and properties, where the components are not evenly distributed and can be seen as separate phases.
Pure argon gas is a homogeneous substance.
A light bulb contains a solid filament, usually made of tungsten, enclosed in a gas mixture, typically argon or nitrogen, and surrounded by a glass envelope. This makes a light bulb a heterogeneous mixture because it consists of different phases (solid, gas, and glass) that are not uniformly distributed.
When helium and argon are mixed together, they form a homogeneous mixture known as a gas blend. The properties of the gas blend will depend on the ratio of helium to argon in the mixture. Helium is lighter than argon and less soluble in liquids, so it tends to rise to the top of the mixture when not in a pressurized container.

No, argon gas is a pure substance and not a heterogeneous mixture. A heterogeneous mixture contains different substances that are visibly distinguishable, whereas argon gas is composed of only argon atoms.
Homogeneous refers to a mixture with uniform composition and properties, where the components are evenly distributed. Heterogeneous refers to a mixture with non-uniform composition and properties, where the components are not evenly distributed and can be seen as separate phases.
Air is a homogenous mixture consisting to 78% of oxygen, 21% of nitrogen, and 1% of trace gases (the noble gases argon and xenon, for example.)
Clean air is a homogeneous mixture of nitrogen, argon, oxygen, water vapor and several other gasses present in small amounts. Air that is not "clean" is air that contains dirt and dust, etc, and is a heterogeneous mixture.

A homogeneous mixture shows no variance in its properties. A heterogeneous mixture shows more than one property. For example, if you were to mix oil and water, the mixture would display two different properties because the oil will separate from the water. In that case you can see more than one property to your mixture, so it is classified as a heterogeneous mixture. In contrast, a homogeneous mixture shows only one property. An example of this is the air your are breathing. The atmosphere is comprised of Nitrogen, Oxygen, Argon, Carbon Dioxide and several other gasses including water vapor.
No, dry air is considered a homogeneous mixture because its components (nitrogen, oxygen, argon, carbon dioxide, etc.) are uniformly distributed throughout the air.
No. Argon gas is a pure substance. It is a noble gas element
Well, air contains 78.09% of Nitrogen, 20.95% of Oxygen, 0.03% of Carbon Dioxide and the rest of the gases like Argon, Helium, etc for about 1%. This composition of air is the same no matter where you go. If you're in Australia, the air will have this composition. If you're in South Africa, the air will have the same composition. The basic idea here is that the composition of air doesn't change which means air has a uniform composition. Homogeneous mixtures are those mixtures whose composition is same throughout the mixture and a heterogeneous mixtures are those mixtures whose composition is not same. Also, homogeneous mixtures are mixtures in which its components mix up thoroughly, i.e., the components cannot be observed whereas in a heterogeneous mixture, the individual components can be observed. In air, the Nitrogen or Oxygen cannot be observed separately. It is uniform and homogeneous. Thus, air is not a heterogeneous mixture.
This is a tough question... Some chemists will say both. For example, you could argue that air in a balloon is a heterogeneous mixture. We say it is heterogeneous because it is made up of many different types off substances. For example, air is about 78% Nitrogen, 21% Oxygen and 1% Argon. In addition it has very small amounts of other molecules like water and carbon dioxide. It also contains dust and other aerosols. Because it is made of so many different things, it is a heterogeneous mixture, On the other hand, it acts like a homogeneous mixture. When you observe air, you don't see all the individual pieces that make it up. You see an overall mixture. When it travels (like when wind blows) it does so as one big group. On the surface of the earth, it doesn't separate at all. (It does separate as you go higher in the atmosphere, past the mesosphere where it definitely becomes heterogeneous.) If you are asking this as a high school student taking a chemistry course, I'd venture to say that your teacher wants you to call it a homogeneous mixture of gasses. Even though it's made of different compounds that act independently of one another on certain occasions (like when you burn a match you are only burning oxygen.... not argon or nitrogen), many say it's homogeneous.
