Suspensions
A temporary heterogeneous mixture that separates into individual components over time is known as a suspension. In a suspension, solid particles are dispersed in a liquid but can settle at the bottom if left undisturbed due to gravity. Common examples include muddy water and salad dressings, where the components can easily be separated by filtration or allowing time for the particles to settle.
Yes, house paint is a heterogeneous mixture because it consists of different components that are not uniformly distributed throughout the paint. These components include pigments, binders, solvents, and additives, which can separate or settle over time.
A mixture is a combination of two or more substances that are mixed together but can be separated easily, while a suspension is a mixture in which particles are dispersed in a liquid but do not dissolve and settle out over time. Suspensions are heterogeneous mixtures, while mixtures can be homogeneous or heterogeneous.
In a heterogeneous mixture, the components are not evenly distributed and can be seen as separate phases or regions within the mixture. These components can be distinguished by physical properties like color or density, and they may settle out over time or be separated through physical methods like filtration or decantation.
A heterogeneous mixture with large particles is likely to be the least stable at rest over time. This is because the large particles have a tendency to settle at the bottom due to gravity, leading to separation of the components of the mixture.

Heterogeneous mixture.
A homogeneous mixture is a term used to describe a heterogeneous mixture that never settles out. This means that the components of the mixture are evenly distributed throughout and do not separate over time.
Instant coffee in water is a heterogeneous mixture. When instant coffee is added to water, it can initially appear uniform, but the coffee particles may not fully dissolve, leading to visible granules or layers. Over time, if stirred thoroughly, it can become homogeneous, but the initial state is typically heterogeneous.
The tomato soup is a heterogeneous mixture; it contains particles over 1 nm in diameter.
A heterogeneous mixture is a mixture when two or more substances are mixed together but aren't chemically combined/joined
No it is not. This is because the different substances mixed can be clearly distinguished in the mixture. The particles are large enough to settle out over time, whereas in a homogeneous mixture, the solution will not settle out over time.
If you can see particles (like spices) in it, it's not a solution.If it separates, it's not a solution.Italian dressing has both those properties, so it's not a solution twice over.
This can be considered either. If the suspended water is equally distributed in air then it ishomogeneous If it is close to the dew point you will get localized concentrations of water (just before droplets form) and then it is heterogeneous.
A mixture in which layers are too small to be seen is called a homogeneous mixture or a solution. This type of mixture has particles that are evenly distributed throughout and do not settle out over time.
It would be a homogeneous mixture in small volumes of space, perhaps as much as a cubic kilometre over an open desert area, say. In larger volumes or near inhabited or forested areas it would be a heterogeneous mixture owing to variations in carbon dioxide content.
