Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What are Heterogeneous mixtures?
A
A property that depends on the amount of matter in a sample.
B
Characteristics that can be observed/measured without changing the identity of the substance
C
The components are unevenly distributed with a non-uniform composition.
D
The component substances are evenly distributed throughout the mixture. The composition is uniform.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The term “hetero” means “not the same.” Heterogeneous mixes are those in which the components are not dispersed uniformly throughout the mixture, meaning that they are unevenly distributed. Because sand does not scatter equally in water, sand and water is an example of a heterogeneous composition.

Detailed explanation-2: -A heterogeneous mixture has components that are not evenly distributed. This means that you can easily distinguish between the different components. A heterogeneous mixture has two or more phases. This doesn’t necessarily mean phases of matter, like liquid or solid.

Detailed explanation-3: -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.
