When two or more substances are so evenly mixed that you can't see the different part, it is a homogenous mixture which is a solution.

What is the difference between heterogenous and homogenous mixtures?

Heterogeneous mixtures have visibly different components that can be easily distinguished, such as a salad or a bowl of mixed nuts. Homogeneous mixtures, on the other hand, have uniform composition throughout, like saltwater or air.


Is a solution evenly or unevenly distributed?

A solution is evenly distributed when the solute is uniformly mixed with the solvent throughout the entire mixture. This results in a homogeneous solution where the concentration of the solute is the same in all parts of the solution. Uneven distribution would mean that the solute is not uniformly mixed, resulting in a heterogeneous solution.


Can you see the different parts in a homogeneous mixture?

No, a homogeneous mixture appears uniform throughout, meaning you can't visibly distinguish different parts with the naked eye. The components are evenly distributed at a molecular level.


Whats the difference between homogenous mixture and heterogeneous mixture?

A homogenous mixture has uniform composition throughout, where the components are evenly distributed and not distinguishable by the naked eye, like salt dissolved in water. A heterogeneous mixture has non-uniform composition, where the components are not evenly distributed and can be visually distinguished, like a mixture of oil and water.


What is difference between homogeneous and heterogeneous mixture?

Homogenous mixtures are ones in which you cannot see the different parts that make it up. An example is milk. Heterogenous mixtures are ones that you can make out and seperate the different parts easily such as chex mix. with a heterogeneous mixture you can see the difference but a homogeneous mixture is mixed soo well you can't tell the difference. A heterogeneous mixture is one that does not blend smoothly and in which the individual substances remain distinct. A homogeneous mixture has the same composition throughout, and always has a single phase. A heterogeneous mixture's components are not evenly distributed and are immiscible, or not able to be mixed. A homogeneous mixture's components are evenly distributed and are miscible, or able to be mixed.

Is a salad an example of a mixture that is evenly mixed?

I think it would be evenly mixed, because you can't see all the parts, but you can still pick the different pieces out physically. That's what I think but I could be wrong. o_o


How can you prove the clear substance of water and baking soda is a solution and not a compound?

Because a solution is similar to a homogeneous mixture which means that it is so evenly mixed that you cant see the different parts


A very well-mixed mixture?

Paint is a great example of a very well-mixed substance, though when it sits, it separates into its different chemical parts based on the weight of each substance.


Solution?

Substances dissolve into one another.

How is comparing mixed numbers and whole numbers different?

Mixed numbers have fractional parts that must be compared; whole numbers do not.


What are hetrogeneous substance?

Heterogeneous Substance is mixture. The mixture is made of two different parts that you can detect quite easily.


Why is the population of south America not spread evenly throughout the continent?

Because there are different parts of South America.


How is a heterogeneous mixture different from a homogeneous 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~


Is hydrogen sulfide a heterogeneous mixture?

No, hydrogen sulfide is a pure substance, specifically a compound, composed of hydrogen and sulfur atoms. It is not a heterogeneous mixture, which is a combination of different substances that are not uniformly mixed.


What is heterogenes?

A heterogeneous mixture is a mixture that is not evenly mixed. Heterogeneity (the noun) means the opposite of homogeneity, which means "uniformly distributed".
