Question 4 • IA-Chemistry A Survey of Chemistry A

Consider a mixture of oil and water. What terms would you use to describe this mixture? Check all that apply.

Answer
A
heterogeneous
B
homogeneous
C
immiscible
D
miscible

Explanation

Oil and water separate into distinct layers rather than forming a uniform mixture, so the mixture is heterogeneous. Because the two liquids do not mix with each other, they are immiscible. Thus, “heterogeneous” and “immiscible” describe the mixture.
