Based on the distribution of their components, mixtures can be classified as heterogeneous mixtures or as homogenous mixtures.

Can the composition vary in a homogeneous and heterogeneous mixture?

In a homogeneous mixture, the composition remains uniform throughout the mixture, meaning all samples taken from different parts will have the same composition. In a heterogeneous mixture, the composition can vary throughout the mixture, leading to different samples having different compositions.


Is fixed composition a caracteritic of a mixture?

A fixed composition is not a characteristic of a mixture. The composition of a mixture can vary, unlike the composition of a compound that forms a chemical reaction.


What is a mixture with a uniform composition?

A mixture whose composition is uniform throughout is called Homogeneous Mixture.


The composition of a mixture can vary unlike a compound?

Yes, in a mixture, the substances are physically combined and can be present in any proportion. This allows the composition to vary, unlike a compound where the elements are chemically combined in fixed ratios.


What a mixture that has the same composition throughout is called?

This is a homogeneous mixture.


What is matter that varies composition is called?

mixture


What is variable composition?

I am not 100% sure, but i believe variable composition is when the composition of a mixture can vary, or contain different properties, elements/compounds... etc. An example of variable composition would be a heterogeneous mixture, which has no uniform way of being composed. Where as its opposite, a homogeneous mixture, has a set composition of the same properties, elements/compounds... etc. and can be recreated.


Is brass an compound?

Brass is not a compound, because its atomic composition can vary from one sample to another. Instead brass is a mixture, of the special type called an alloy, because it is a mixture primarily of metals.


What is matter that can vary in composition?

A mixture is matter that can vary in composition, consisting of two or more substances that are not chemically combined. Mixtures can have varying ratios of components and can be separated by physical means. Examples include saltwater and air.


What is a mixture that doesn't have a definite composition called?

A special name for this mixture doesn't exist.


Can the composition of a homogeneous mixture vary?

No, the composition of a homogeneous mixture is consistent throughout, meaning it has the same uniform properties in all parts of the mixture. This uniformity allows for the components to be evenly distributed at a molecular level.


What is a collection of molecules that are not all the same called?

A collection of molecules that are not all the same is called a mixture. Mixtures can be homogeneous (uniform composition) or heterogeneous (non-uniform composition).
