You are making a cup of tea. You add sugar and stir until it completely dissolves. What would you call this?

• A homogeneous mixture is a mixture that has a uniform composition throughout.

• A heterogenous mixture is a mixture that can be separated into its components by physical means.

• A homogeneous mixture is a mixture that contains only one type of substance.

• A heterogeneous mixture is a mixture that has a non-uniform composition throughout.

Consider a piece of iron and a piece of wood. When exposed to heat, they react differently. This difference in heat response is a unique property of each substance. Is this statement true?

• True

• False

You are making a salad with different ingredients like lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, and olives. What kind of mixture is this?

• A mixture that consists of visibly different substances or phases.

• A mixture that consists of only one substance or phase.

• A mixture that consists of substances that cannot be separated by physical means.

• A mixture that consists of substances that have the same properties.
