Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Freshly brewed black coffee
A
Heterogeneous
B
Homogeneous
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Black coffee is a homogeneous mixture since it only contains boiled water and coffee powder. However, white coffee is normally made using sugar, milk, cream, etc. thus making it a heterogeneous mixture. However, in freshly brewed coffee the ingredients are properly mixed and every part has an equal ratio of components.

Detailed explanation-2: -1.14. Solve Freshly brewed coffee and vinegar (a, b) are homogeneous mixtures. A slice of white bread and a slice of ham (c, d) are heterogeneous mixtures.

Detailed explanation-3: -If you consider the finished drink, then black coffee probably seems homogenous, and indeed much of it is composed of water and compounds that are water soluble, but it does also contain small amounts of terpenoids such as cafestol which are not water soluble, and therefore make black coffee a very dilute dispersion.

Detailed explanation-4: -Brewed coffee is a mixture of ground coffee beans and water. What process is used to separate ground coffee beans from brewed coffee? Filtration is used to separate ground coffee beans from brewed coffee. Tap water is a homogeneous mixture of water and substances that are dissolved in the water.

Detailed explanation-5: -Freshly brewed drip coffee uses gravity instead of force to push water through the coffee grounds. The hot water dissolves many of the grounds and then passes through a paper, cloth or metal filter and into a glass or carafe, ready to enjoy.
