Mixtures

Question 7 • AA-F26 Physical Science

What is the correct classification of a mixture in which both a solid and a liquid are visible?

Answer
A
a homogeneous mixture and a solution
B
a homogeneous mixture and a suspension
C
a heterogeneous mixture and a solution
D
a heterogeneous mixture and a suspension

Explanation

If both the solid and liquid can be seen as separate parts, the mixture is not uniform throughout, so it is heterogeneous. The solid has not dissolved into a solution; instead, solid particles are dispersed in the liquid, making it a suspension. Thus, the correct choice is “a heterogeneous mixture and a suspension.”
