Question

Select all that apply.
Which of the following are homogeneous solutions?
salt water
air
sand and water
vinegar
cement

Answer 1

Answer:

Air, vinegar, cement.

Explanation:

Air, vinegar, cement are homogenous solutions.

Answer 2

Explanation:

A homogeneous mixture is defined as the mixture in which solute particles are evenly distributed in a solvent.

A homogeneous mixture is a clear solution.

For example, salt dissolved in water is a homogeneous mixture.

Air contains different gases which are evenly distributed.

In vinegar also, particles are evenly distributed which result in a clear solution.

A mixture in which solute particles are unevenly distributed into the solvent then it is known as a heterogeneous mixture.

For example, sand in water is a heterogeneous mixture.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options following are homogeneous solutions:

• salt water

• air

• vinegar
