Question
What are the different types of mixtures ?
Solution
Mixtures are basically of two types :
- Homogeneous Mixtures : The composition of these mixtures is uniform throughout the mixture. Besides the properties of the mixture are the same in all the parts of the mixture, e.g. sugar dissolved in water.
- Heterogeneous Mixtures : A heterogenous mixture composition is not uniform throughout the mixture. The properties of the mixture are different in different parts of mixture e.g. chalk dissolved in water.
