Which is a characteristic of a solution?

Answer
A
Its particles scatter light.
B
Its particles are evenly distributed.
C
Its particles settle out.
D
It has large suspended particles.

Explanation

A solution is a homogeneous mixture, so its particles are evenly distributed throughout. They are too small to scatter light or settle out, unlike particles in some colloids and suspensions. Therefore, the correct choice is B, “Its particles are evenly distributed.”
