1. Which of the following best describes a homogeneous mixture?
Components are uniformly distributed and indistinguishable.
Components are visible and distinct from each other.
Only one component is present.
Components react chemically to form a new substance.
2. Which of the following is an example of a heterogeneous mixture?
Saltwater
Air
Sand and water
Brass
3. A solution is a special type of mixture.
4. The Tyndall effect is often observed in mixtures, but not in mixtures.
5. All heterogeneous mixtures are suspensions.
True
False
6. A colloid is an example of a homogeneous mixture.
True
False
7. Describe the key difference between a homogeneous mixture and a heterogeneous mixture, providing an example for each.
Use the words below to complete the sentences.
8. In a , the solute particles are very small and evenly distributed, making the mixture appear throughout.
9. A mixture where particles are large enough to settle out over time is called a , while a has particles intermediate in size.
10. Observe the image below. Classify each example shown as either homogeneous or heterogeneous.
Example A:
Example B:
Example C:
11. Discuss the different methods that can be used to separate components of heterogeneous mixtures, providing at least three distinct techniques and explaining the principle behind each.
