Mixtures and Solutions

What is a homogeneous mixture?

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

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

• A homogeneous mixture is a mixture that can be separated into its components easily.
