Is an Oreo cookie a compound a heterogeneous or homogeneous mixture?

Answer 1

An Oreo cookie is considered a heterogeneous mixture. A heterogeneous mixture is one in which the components are not uniformly distributed throughout the mixture. In the case of an Oreo cookie, you can see the different components such as the cookie wafer and the cream filling, which are not evenly distributed.

Answer 2

The definition of a homogeneous mixture is 'A mixture of two or more substances that cannot be easily separated by common physical means (ie settling, filtration, etc.).Samples from different parts of this mixture have the same composition.' So I suppose it depends on the kind of cookie. A chocolate chip cookie is NOT and example of a homogeneous mixture, it is an example of a hetrogeneous mixture. However a sugar cookie or shortbread cookie IS an example of a homogeneous mixture. The definition of a homogeneous mixture is 'A mixture of two or more substances that cannot be easily separated by common physical means (ie settling, filtration, etc.).Samples from different parts of this mixture have the same composition.' So I suppose it depends on the kind of cookie. A chocolate chip cookie is NOT and example of a homogeneous mixture, it is an example of a hetrogeneous mixture. However a sugar cookie or shortbread cookie IS an example of a homogeneous mixture.
