Heterogeneous Mixtures
- A heterogeneous mixture is a mixture that consists of two or more substances, where each substance maintains its chemical properties.
- In a heterogeneous mixture, the different substances are not uniformly mixed, and the composition of the mixture varies from one region to another.
- An example of a heterogeneous mixture is a mixture of sand and water, where the sand settles at the bottom of the container and the water remains on top.
- Heterogeneous mixtures are different from homogeneous mixtures, where the composition of the mixture is uniform throughout.
- Unlike homogeneous mixtures, heterogeneous mixtures have visible boundaries or distinguishable components, such as the separate layers of sand and water in the example above.
