A mixture that appears to contain only one substance is a(an) A. homogeneous mixture. B. heterogeneous mixture. C. compound. D. element.

Answer :

mixtures that appear to be the same throughout are homogenous mixtures

A mixture that appears to contain only one substance is a homogeneous mixture.

Further Explanation

Mixture  

  • A mixture is a substance that is made up of two or more substances that are not chemically combined and in fixed proportions.  
  • A mixture may have several varying physical properties.

Types of mixtures

Heterogeneous mixtures

  • This is a type of mixture that contains different substances or two or more phases of matter.
  • The components of heterogeneous mixtures are not uniform such that different samples of the mixture are not identical to each other.  
  • Examples of heterogeneous mixtures are; blood, soil, Gravel, etc.

Suspension  

  • It is a type of heterogeneous mixture made of larger particles that are visible and normally settles when the mixture is undisturbed.
  • Examples include, tomato juice, fine sand, etc.

Homogeneous mixtures  

  • These are mixtures with a similar uniform appearance and composition throughout. Examples are, steel, air salt water, etc.
  • Homogeneous mixtures may either be, a colloid or a solution.

Solutions  

  • Solutions are types of homogeneous mixtures containing two or more substances in a single phase.
  • Solutions contain, a solute which is the substance that dissolves in the other substance and a solvent which is the substances that dissolves the solute.
  • For example, in a salt solution, water is the solvent and salt is the solute.

Colloid  

  • A colloid is a homogeneous solution that has an intermediate size particle between a suspension and a solution.
  • Examples of colloids are fog and milk.
