GENERAL KNOWLEDGE

Detailed explanation-1: -A heterogeneous mixture is a mixture where throughout the solution the composition is not uniform. By definition, a single-phase consists of a pure substance or a homogeneous mixture. There are two or more phases of a heterogeneous mixture.

Detailed explanation-2: -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. In the case of vegetable soup, one phase would be the liquid soup itself.

Detailed explanation-3: -Heterogeneous mixture: The heterogeneous mixture has a non-uniform composition and has two or more phases. It can be separated out physically. Example: A mixture of sodium chloride and sand.

Detailed explanation-4: -A heterogeneous mixture consists of substances which remain physically separate. It can easily be separated into its constituents by processes such as filtering, hand picking, magnetic separation etc. Example-a mixture of sand and marble.

Detailed explanation-5: -Heterogeneous mixtures contain at least two components, ingredients, or different phases (any part of a sample that has uniform composition and properties). Mixtures can usually be separated. Phases mix together but retain their own chemical identity.
