Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
a homogeneous mixture or one phase
A
solution
B
solute
C
solvent
D
saturated solution
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A homogeneous mixture is a gaseous, liquid or solid mixture that has the same proportions of its components throughout a given sample. It is uniform in composition throughout. There is only one phase of matter observed in a homogeneous mixture.

Detailed explanation-2: -By definition, a pure substance or a homogeneous mixture consists of a single phase. A heterogeneous mixture consists of two or more phases. When oil and water are combined, they do not mix evenly, but instead form two separate layers. Each of the layers is called a phase.

Detailed explanation-3: -There is no physical boundary between the components in homogeneous mixtures, so they appear as a single homogeneous phase. Unlike heterogenous mixtures, which have distinct boundaries between its constituents. Hence, homogenous mixtures have only one phase.

Detailed explanation-4: -A homogeneous mixture is a mixture in which the composition is uniform throughout the mixture. All solutions would be considered homogeneous.

Detailed explanation-5: -Examples of homogeneous mixtures include air, saline solution, most alloys, and bitumen.
