Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
How are solutions and mixtures alike?
A
They are a combination of substances
B
They are both chemically combined
C
they can be separated immediately
D
they have no similarities
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In a mixture, substances are generally just mixed and are not completely dissolved. In a solution, substances are dissolved completely and they cannot be filtered out. The mixture comprises two or three compounds that aren’t fused chemically. They have no physical interactions.

Detailed explanation-2: -In chemistry a solution is actually a type of mixture. A solution is a mixture that is the same or uniform throughout. Think of the example of salt water. This is also called a “homogenous mixture.” A mixture that is not a solution is not uniform throughout.

Detailed explanation-3: -1. In both Mixtures and Solutions, two or more substances are physically combined. 2. Both are made of matter.

Detailed explanation-4: -Salt and water is both a solution and a mixture. Salt, the solute, can be dissolved in water, the solvent, and the solute is homogeneously distributed in the solvent. Therefore, it is a solution. It is also a mixture because the components can be separated by mechanical means, distillation.
