Solution

Answer:

Homogeneous mixture:

A Homogeneous mixture is a mixture in which the constituents that make up the mixture are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.

For example, A mixture of salt and water, a mixture of water and sugar,

Heterogeneous mixture:

When we mix two or more components non-uniform composition, that remain separate from each other, that mixture is called a Heterogeneous mixture.

For example, A mixture of sand and water.

These mixtures have a non-uniform composition of components throughout the mixture so both mixtures are examples of a heterogeneous mixture.
