Is sand with shells homogeneous or heterogeneous?

Sand with shells is a heterogeneous mixture because it contains different components (sand and shells) that are visibly different and can be separated easily. In a homogeneous mixture, the components are evenly distributed and not easily distinguishable.


What is the behavior of the components of homogeneous and heterogeneous mixtures?

Homogeneous mixtures are mixtures which get completely mixed in the solution. For example, a solution of salt and water. Heterogeneous mixtures are mixtures which do not get completely mixed in the solution. For example, a solution of sand and water.


Is sand and gravel a heterogeneous mixture or a homogeneous mixture?

A mixture of sand and water would be a heterogeneous mixture because the sand doesn't dissolve within the waterHeterogeneous.See the Related Questions to the left for more information.


Is an bottle of spring water an element compound homogeneous or heterogeneous mixture?

A bottle of spring water is a homogeneous mixture. It is made up of water molecules and dissolved minerals that are evenly distributed throughout the solution, giving it a uniform appearance and composition.


How is a homogeneous mixture different from a heterogeneous mixture?

Homogeneous mixtures have uniform composition and properties throughout and are known as solutions. For e.g, when sugar/salt is dissolved in water it forms a solution in which the sugar/salt and water are uniformly mixed (the sugar is dissolved uniformly in water). e.g.airHeterogenous mixtures are those which aren't uniform in composition and properties throughout e.g. granite which consists of quartz, feldspar and mica and you can identify each of the substances sepaately in the mixture. Heterogeneous mixtures can be suspensions or colloids.NOTE: None of these mixtures are compounds.Homogeneous mixtures contain a single phase, whereas heterogeneous mixtures have many phases. ~IHATEe2020~
