Solution and other Mixtures

1.  A heterogeneous mixture is a mixture in which the individual substances are visible to the naked eye. Chocolate chips in a cookie would be a heterogeneous mixture, the chips do not dissolve or melt.

2. A homogeneous mixture is a type of mixture in which the composition is uniform. A heterogeneous mixture is a type of mixture in which the composition can easily be identified since there are two or more phases present. Air is a homogeneous mixture of the gaseous substances nitrogen, oxygen, and smaller amounts of other substances. Salt, sugar, and many other substances dissolve in water to form homogeneous mixture.
