A solution is a mixture in which the components are evenly distributed and remain separate only on the molecular level. For example in sugar water has the same distribution of sugar and water throughout. A solution can also be called a homogeneous mixture.

In other mixtures, however, the components remain more distinct from one another such that distinct particles or phases can be discerned. The different components are not evenly distributed. Mud is a good example of this: although mixed together, it is still possible to distinguish between the water and the soil particles. These are called heterogeneous mixtures.
